Comments on: Toasted Almond Dacquoise http://zoebakes.com/?p=690 Just another WordPress weblog Thu, 09 Sep 2010 06:36:28 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Miss B http://zoebakes.com/?p=690#comment-7244 Miss B Fri, 09 Apr 2010 03:06:42 +0000 http://zoebakes.com/?p=690#comment-7244 I am doing my homework on a cake that I made a few times at a bakery I worked at years ago. I'm planning my wedding and I'm in search of a tiered cake with almond dacquoise, and possibly a chambord or grand marnier buttercream icing. I believe that she may have used a raspberry filling as well. Could you possibly give me some pointers? I am doing my homework on a cake that I made a few times at a bakery I worked at years ago.

When I lived in England, my wife and I used to go to a pub that served a dacquoise for dessert. It was an almond dacquoise with an espresso buttercream filling with sliced bananas between the layers. I've been trying to find a recipe for that dessert for years. Do you have any suggestions on the filling recipe? Thanks, Rick Zoe,

I have been looking all over for one. I used to work in a French bakery & the baker who made this went back to France & it was never made again. He used to make it as a cake on its own. He put either vanilla or chocolate buttercream between the 2 layers of cake. Karin Thank You so much for this great recipe. I have been looking all over for one.

Good for you. I hope you didn't have to then deliver it to the wedding site. That is always the worst part for me! Zoë Miss T,

The cake was complicated enough that it took a week to make--I spent an entire day just on marzipan fruit! So glad I did it, though, and the photos of me with buttercream up and down my arms are priceless. :o) Thanks, Zoe! Yes, crazy, but I really wanted to do it.
