Reality • 25 min • 3 seasons, 80 episodes
Episode synopsis
Nut cakes range from easy little cakes to elaborate grand tortes. In this episode, Anna shows viewers how to make a few cakes that she’s just nuts about, desserts where nuts feature prominently in the recipe. Anna begins with a lovely little French teacake prepared with almond flour called Financiers. Next she moves on to Italian Pine Nut Cake. This classic cake from Italy has a rich and complex nutty flavor. And for a grand dessert featuring nuts, Anna prepares an elegant Mont Blanc torte—an impressive cake to serve at a dinner party. And what could be more fun than nut brittle, served as a garnish or a treat on its own.
