Milanese cake

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Milanese cake is another name for macaroon cake - a cake with a macaroon mixture . The sales name “ Mailänder Torte” can also be used for cakes with a filling of persipan raw mass , since this cake may not be offered as a “macaroon cake”.

preparation

A cake base is cut open and put together with jam and / or macaroon mixture, then decorations of macaroon mixture are sprayed on top and the cake is scorched . The empty spaces between the decors are then filled with warmed, liquefied jam. The edge of the cake is sprinkled with sliced ​​almonds. After the jam has solidified again, the cake can be cut.

history

Two different recipes appeared in German cookbooks of the 19th century under the name Mailänder Torte : On the one hand, a Milanese cake was described as a modification of a Viennese cake , in which stripped almonds, pounded with orange blossom and water, were added to the mass; the individually baked cake bases were put together with dissolved jam and then covered with a white glaze. On the other hand, a sponge cake (without any addition of marzipan or similar flavorings) was also called a Milanese cake .
