Bruléed Top Ingredients
Method
Bruléed Top Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Bruléed Top
Once the cake is completely cooled, spread the cardamom icing evenly over the top of the cake.
- 2
Caramelize Sugar
Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the icing. Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy, golden layer. If you don't have a torch, you can place the cake under a broiler for a few minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
