A little behind-the-scenes look at how we build our Almond Brittle Cake. Thousands of cakes, each one made by hand in our kitchen. Let’s get into the layers. 👉
First up: almond flour brown butter cake, carefully trimmed to fit each and every cake box.
Next, fresh Double Fold Vanilla ice cream, spun with Grandma Malek’s iconic almond brittle.
Then, a generous layer of house-made chocolate ganache. Because we’re not here to skimp on the good stuff.
Another layer of Double Fold Vanilla ice cream and Grandma Malek’s almond brittle.
And to top it all off: sweet-and-salty clusters of saltine Florentine cookies, all drizzled in chocolate.
5 layers. Thousands of cakes. Every single one built by hand in our kitchen. The kind of thing that takes a little extra time, and is worth every layer. 🎂
