I love custard cream so much and this is one of my favorite cakes.

First of all, what is it? Torta della Nonna means literally “Grandma’s Cake”. But its origins got lost a bit during the years.
It seems that the classic recipe as we know it was not invented by a grandma, but by chef Guido Samorini. He was also a restaurant owner from Florence.

Apparently he was challenged by his clients to come up with a new dessert. He combined a shortcrust base with custard cream and pine nuts. The cake turned out to be easy to make yet delicious.

These two factors probably contributed to the popularity of this cake in Italian restaurants during the 80’s and 90’s.
