"Tosca cake." A rich sponge cake topped with a heated mixture of coarsely chopped almonds mixed with butter, sugar, cream and flour. This is spread over the cake which is then baked for about another 15 minutes.
Gum tragacanth. A viscous, odourless, flavourless gum used in pharmaceuticals and foods as an emulsifier, thickener, stabilizer, and texturant additive (E-number E413).
Grey chanterelles. Fluted, trumpet-shaped, wild mushrooms with a ruffled edge, dark grey to black in colour. They are commonly found under pine, beech or birch trees from July until the first frosts and thrive in wet summers. They are usually sautéed in butter with chopped onions, but are not considered as tasty as the horn of plenty, which they resemble.
