NOTE:

  • If you make this cake, you can divide the work into 2 days of filling to continue tomorrow.

  • When roasting hazelnuts, be sure to stir them constantly over a moderate heat, taking care not to burn them. Peel them best by rubbing. And then grind them into small pieces.

  • You can add as many almonds as you need for decoration, put them in warm water and then peel them and divide the leaves, and dry them!

  • You can also make this cake in a rectangular shape, measuring 35×20 cm.
