oday I’m making “Splitska Torta” – delicious dried fig and almond cake named after my hometown of Split, Croatia!

uile is a French word for a roof tile, and also for a thin, crispy, tile-shaped cookie. Tuiles are usually served as an accompaniment for a creamy dessert, because their crunchiness gives a contrast in texture to something smooth, such as chocolate parfait or panna cotta, for example. However, tuile is a beautiful treat itself, served with a cup of tea or coffee.
