Does anyone know the recipe for Pandispanje?!?
Hope someone can help me!!!!!

I tried the title on the net but it was in another language and I couldent figure out which one. But there is a recipe if you google it. Sorry I couldnt crack it.

i did the same thing--i think it's German--sorry

The pages I found on it were in Italian, but I don't speak it so it.

I don't know if this will help in this case or not, but I use this page for translating foreign recipes and such that I find on the web.

In most cases, I can get enough translated so I can figure out most of the recipe and go from there.

I believe it´s an Albanian recipe.

Good luck with the translation. When I read earlier in the post that it was Italian I went to check it out to see if I could help. I´m Spanish and Italian is very close but no luck.

Yes its an Italian/ Albanian cake. My husband is Albanian thats why i wanted to make it!!! haha

Just wondered if any of you made it in America but i guess not!!!

Thanks for the recipe Cupcakemom, will save me going through our Albanian cook books and looking up any words i dont know!!! Where in eastern europe are you from??

I'm curious now! What is it like? A custard? Cake?

It is the most lovely cake i have ever eaten, although im sure it wont be as good when i make it!!!!!

It is like a very very soft sponge kind of cake with a kind of meringue/cream filling and topping then with fresh fruits on top and crushed nuts rolled around the edge!!! yummy!

If you search on google then go to the images search it brings loads up if you want to see a pciture!!!! To see them you need to type in Pan di spagna, the pictures dont come up with the albanian spelling!
