And here's my proposal today: A soft and delicious vanilla cake with creamy filling of caramel and a generous touch of toasted pecans walnuts. A wonderful alternative comopastel's birthday if you want something different from the traditional cake of chocolate and cream. The filling is a candy that does not need a thermometer with which is super easy to make. It is even better if done from one day to another because the brown sugar gives it a crunchy texture that improves if left to rest for the night.

  • Level of difficulty: high
  • Time of preparation: 1 h. processing, plus 1/2 h. rest and 1/2 h. Cook (*)
  • Seating: 10 servings

(*) I would also add to achieve the fullness of flavor: 24 h. minimum in freezer, more 3 h. fridge, more 1 h at room temperature.

Tips and tricks:

-The filling must be used immediately or it can be kept covered at room temperature for up to two days. With this amount of can cover 3 dozen cupcakes or a cake of three layers of 22 cms.

-If you have hurry, use home sweet of milk instead of cream caramel. It is also delicious although caramel cream is... spectacular!.
