€10-€20Torta Russa di Verona in Verona
Torta Russa di Verona is a baked dessert made with puff pastry filled with a soft mixture of almonds, amaretti, eggs, butter, and sugar. On the outside it appears simple, often with a surface lightly dusted with powdered sugar, while inside it has a moist and fragrant texture thanks to the nuts. The contrast between the crisp pastry and the rich almond filling is its defining feature. It is a homestyle yet refined cake, typical of Verona’s pastry shops and usually prepared in a round shape.
