I love frangipane too!<br /><br />Manu - I know what you mean! Both crostatas were so different in taste, so glad I could do both and not have to choose! Thank you for lovely comment.<br /><br />kcmorr - Thanks for the comment, brother-in-law loved it. Thought the crostata may come out too sweet but it was balanced just right.<br /><br />Pavithra - thank you for your lovely comment, love your blog!<br /><br />katbrown - I find the frangipane recipe I use has just the right amount of sweetness. Try it and let me know how it goes!

I'm loving your apple rossette, such a gorgeous presentation idea! I'm definitely going to try out the fragipane recipe sometime soon. I used a similar almond filling in a crostata but found the honey in mine overpowered the lovely almondy taste. This version might be just right!katbrownhttp://www.sweetsnstitches.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1224054117894787844.post-53763375165017495672010-11-29T04:49:38.271+00:002010-11-29T04:49:38.271+00:00Wow well done on the challenge , the crostata and ...Wow well done on the challenge , the crostata and the filling is awesome.

We picked up a bunch from the store recently, and they were so sweet and delicious.
