Dearest MK's Friends!
Are you ready for Easter 2o17?
According to the Italic uses, generally, people have typical chocolate eggs, easter cakes which can be savoury flan or the more famous and spread Dove-shaped easter cake, etc...

Since the above listed ones are commonly found at the cake shop, supermarkets, bars etc...I thought I'd love to vary from the classic theme and share with you an interesting cake realised to allow people who can't eat gluten flours to have their chance to taste something nice during the Easter holiday.

Here is my gift for you all.

Get paper and pen, and take notes.

HAPPY EASTER!
MK

When eggs will be well mounted, add, at the recommended doses, alternating, chickpea flour, chestnut flour, almond flour almond milk and olive oil and grapeseed oil, always beating with whips.

Decorate the top with almonds and a dusting of icing sugar as it gets a little cold.

[CURIOSITY - according to numerology, and italian lottery, each number has its meaning, so '47' means "the dead who speaks".]
Since Easter is the event of Resurrection, the coffin shaped (8 sides) cake, speaks of death and resurrection of Jesus and of everyone of those have gone through sin and redemption. A nice parallelism, uh?

So said, I renew everyone my best wishes for a Serene Easter 2o17!
