SWEDISH ALMOND TART
Almond paste topped with the sweetness and crunch of caramelized, glazed almond bits – Swedish Almond Tart simply delivers a luxurious taste of ALMOND in every bite!
The Swedish Almond Tart (Toscabit) is like a ‘spin-off’ of the Swedish Almond Cake. Both use almond paste, but the main difference is, this being a tart, there is a pastry dough at the bottom. I’ve seen some where they just sprinkle crushed nuts on top, but my favorite is where they mix the sliced almonds with caramelized sugar and add some more glaze on top. YUM!
