Aki has been playing around with baking meringue straight onto cakes. The inspiration is the blitz torte. She puts the cake batter in the pans and spreads meringue over the top. The meringue and cake cook together. The result is a delicate, crispy, and tender meringue on top of moist cake. To me, it’s as though frosting is baked directly on the cake.
