frangipane

Sweet almond cream

Frangipane is a rich almond-flavored pastry filling made from ground almonds, butter, sugar, and eggs.

It appears most often in tarts, particularly the classic French galette des rois and Bakewell tart.

The texture is dense and moist, somewhere between cake and marzipan.

She spread frangipane over the pear slices before baking.
