Know-how and simplicity

Cakes made with incredibly simple ingredients should be easy to make - and yet… Robert Linxe's Pleyel cake is unlike other cakes, featuring a rich chocolate mousse, made with butter and egg yolks. Ground almonds replace the flour for a firmer texture, without ever weighing the mixture down. These ingredients are incorporated into a French meringue, so similar to chocolate mousse. The final mixture is dense, with a beautifully melt-in-the-mouth texture. Baked in a rectangular and finely fluted tin (to create shape of the cake's delicate pre-cut slices), the secret to its mi-cuit texture lies in the perfect command of a "wet" cooking process, during which the cake is covered to avoid drying out. But shhh, we weren't the ones to tell you!

delicate but with strong good chocolate taste. Best before date is near, but that isn't a problem. Hard to resist eating.
