John’s Favorite -Linzer Torte

By Stephanie Jaworski

One of John’s favorite deserts is Linzer Torte. I have never had it, but he says, “It is out of this world.”

I found this recipe for Linzer Torte on Joy of Baking and thought I would surprise him with it.

An idea for the wedding is to have your baker make your groom’s favorite desert and surprise him with it at the cake cutting. A delicious start to a sweet life together!

Another idea would be to print the groom’s surprise recipe desert and attach it to heart shaped measuring spoons like these from candles & such and send one home with each of your guests as wedding favors.

Teddy had ended up on the floor facing me with his cute little perma-smile. Joel and I had worked hard over the last few weeks and this was the first morning we were able to sleep in. Read more»
