Torta della nonna, "grandmother's cake," tastes as only an Italian grandmother could make it.
If texture is your thing, you're going to want to pay attention to the next Italian cake we have to introduce to you.
You're probably already at least a little familiar with the magical, flavor-laden treat that is cassata.
Juicy tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil are typical of "Caprese," which pairs well with our chopped Caprese salad.
You usually think of chocolate-covered strawberries, bananas, or orange slices when you think of chocolate with fruit.
The dish takes its name from the pumpkin-shaped mold traditionally used in making the cake —the name zuccotto even means "little pumpkin" in Italian!
These iconic fruits are no strangers to soothing sweets, whether you're flavoring them with clove, cinnamon, and ginger for the ideal apple streusel.
So many delicious fall treats have been created, from pumpkin pie to glazed cranberry bread.
