Eggless Italian Chocolate and Hazelnut Cake - Torta Gianduia

Blogging Marathon # 38 Week 1 Day : 2
Theme : One dish, Different Country - Cakes from Around the World - Torta Gianduia
Course : Dessert


When this months Blogging Marathon Challenge I chose One dish different countries as my theme for this week. There are so many dishes around the world which are resemble and am going to post on the most famous cake dessert which are specially prepared during festivals such as Swiss cake for Christmas, Torta Gianduia made specially during Carnival festival.

Gianduia is a sweet chocolate containing hazelnut, invented in Turin by Caffarel in 1852. It takes its name from marionette character which represents Piedmont, the Italian region where Gianduia chocolate was invented. Traditionally Gianduia cake preparation is very elaborate and the traditional recipe uses no flour at all, but only bitter chocolate, sugar, butter, water, and heavy cream.  This version is eggless, and so does include flour.  It tastes just as good, though!

Ferrero Roucher Tart

This month's challenge for Eggless Baking Priya Srinivasan of Enveetu Kitchen suggested this chocolaty and love of every one Ferrero Roucher Tart for Gayatri's Baking Eggless. The tart is all time favorite of my family. The original recipe is inspired from Trissalicious, have made some changes in hazelnut spread as my husband personally prefers soft and sticky topping. The mousse was the best thing i enjoyed making in this dish, i substituted egg with heavy whipping cream and veg gelatin. Am sorry could not post the step by step pic of the recipe as was busy in preparing dishes for my dinner party.
