BAKE-STREET

How many times have you written to me asking me about the Stollen recipe… Ok, voilà! you already got it. The truth is that I am not surprised that this recipe has been so requested in recent months, because it is one of those delicacies that make our eyes turn around while we enjoy after each bite.

I know I am a little late with this recipe of Calisson d’Aix en Provence, but in my defense I will say that there is still a lot of Christmas ahead and we can enjoy them from now until the arrival of the wonderful night of Three Kings.

Before the Christmas season started, I asked on my IG what recipes you would like me to share. Some of them were already on my website, others were planned among the ones I had in mind and others are still pending to be shared.

I had been meaning to share some recipes mainly made with egg whites, especially since our recent recipes have used a lot of yolks, and I know those egg whites tend to pile up in the fridge.

Well, first of all I must say that today’s recipe changed during the testing process. Originally, I wanted to make the famous Portuguese Cocada Amarela, but it did not turn out as I had in mind. It is true that the result was good, but I was looking for another result (specifically this one).

I must admit that the theme of this year’s Halloween recipe fascinates me. I told you some time ago that everything that has to do with the circus of terror (some time ago I left you a cake with this theme), Freak Shows and others, is something that catches my attention.
