Ingredients
- 1 Pandoro cake 1 kg
- 400 g pastry cream
- 40 candied cherries
- 2 tablespoon confectioner's sugar
Instructions
- Use a bread knife to cut the pandoro into horizontal slices at least 1.5-inch/2 cm high.
- Starting from the base, spread a little pastry cream over each slice, and overlap them by placing the alternating tips as to make it similar to a Christmas tree.
- Top each tip with a candied cherry, or the decoration of your choice.
- Finally, dust the pandoro with a little confectioner's sugar right before serving.
Notes
- The pastry cream filling recipe is just enough for one stuffed pandoro. Alternatively, use 400 g of your desired filling.
- Make sure your pandoro slices are thick enough to make the cake hold well the weight.
- To make it even prettier, transfer the cream into a piping bag fitted with a star-shaped tip, so you can pipe little stars of cream on each pandoro tip.
- Can I make this Italian Christmas cake in advance?
- You can prepare the cream filling up to 2 days in advance. You can then put the stuffed pandoro together and store it in the refrigerator up to 5 hours before serving.
- How can I store leftovers?
- Cut the leftover pandoro into vertical slices and store them horizontally in a large air-tight container. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
