Fruity and sweet, the Mitica® Fig Almond Cake is fudgy and dense with a crunch from the addition of Marcona almonds. Made with real Spanish Pajarero figs from Extremadura, it’s a gluten-free snack that is moist and chewy, with a burst of dried fruit flavor. Perfect for cheese boards or as a dessert, it pairs well with Spanish cheeses like Valdeon and Manchego, or a handful of mixed olives.

“Crunchy, sweet, and chewy, this cake has a lot going on considering it contains just two ingredients. It’s very versatile and pairs well with just about any cheese. I like it with a slice of Manchego for a true taste of Spain.”

These figs were introduced to Spain during the Moorish invasion, as Arabic invaders from North Africa brought the cultivar with them, thereby influencing Spanish cuisine.
The creation of a single five-kilogram cake uses 500-600 figs.
