Baking Brad Episode 20

This is episode twenty - butter almond torte. What's a torte? Do I like almonds? Do I like slivered almonds?

Recipe

• From Cakes & Slices

Good

• Almonds didn't seem to have a particularly strong or dominating taste
• Finally a cake that didn't overflow
• Looked roughly like the photo in the book
• Pretty good taste despite being slightly crunchy and crumbly

Bad

• Long cooking time in two phases - 50 minutes and 15 minutes
• Was a bit overcooked despite following the instructions and even reducing the heat slightly

Really Bad

• Biting into aluminium foil

Ratings

• The Cook - 6/10
