EVERYONE loves cakes and sweets. Or do they? In China for example, their sweets are not sweet to our tastes. In fact, I don't think they use sugar in them. May be wrong, but what I ate was not sweet, just barely.
This is a delicious sweet pasta they make here in Umbria, Italy. It is made with pasta, cacao, chopped nuts, pinenuts, sugar...and I don't know the rest. Ah yes, the liquore is called Alchemins.
And my mother-in-law makes it and it is delicious. It's made around Christmas time.
