Redazione

The Elvezia (or Helvetia) cake from Panificio Freddi is a refined traditional dessert from Mantua, born from the legacy of Swiss pastry chefs in the eighteenth century. This specialty consists of three discs of crumbly pastry made with ground almonds and whipped egg whites. The inner layers are generously filled with velvety buttercream and zabaglione. A delightful variation offered by the bakery includes the addition of dark chocolate shavings, creating a perfect balance of textures
