Your daquoise looks awesome! I’m glad you liked it. Great photos and great post! (I chickened out of this one, moreso because of the ingredients.) Great job!

Hi AmyRuth! When you ask what method I used to cut it, do you mean how did I cut the cake into portions? I used a long serrated knife, but it cut pretty easily…much more so than I thought it would. I didn’t use my mandolilne to do the pineapple slices, just a sharp chef’s knife. (Although in the previous post about piña colada cake, I did use a mandoline…I made those slices paper thin).

Just a couple of more questions, maybe Dorie covered them, but what method did you use to cut it and did you use a mandolin to slice your pineapple?

Steph, wow pineapples right now are so delicious however, not as wonderful as the artistry in your photos. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration, even to a non-white chocolate lover. Darn.
