As some of you might know before I moved to Melbourne for the first time in 2009 I was living in Hobart for a year and a half. I still have many friends down there, including my best friend, her husband and their two gorgeous children. I try to fly down there every now and then to spend some time with them.
I've had some time off before starting a new job next week and decided it was the perfect excuse to fy down again for a long weekend.
My Hazelnut Dacquoise was exactly what I had hoped for, a delicious mixture of roasted hazelnut meringue sponge and hazelnut praline buttercream, it wasn't the lightest of all cakes, but it also doesn't happen all the time that I get to enjoy cake with my bestie so I thought we deserved a treat! I loved the different layers of the cake and actually managed to finish it. It was crunchy and soft, absolutely amazing.
My friend's Strawberry and Cream Macaron Tart was a vanilla pannacotta set on top of an oversized macaron, the macaron was crunchy, light and slightly chewy, just perfect and the pannacotta wasn't too heavy. Also a great choice. The little ones seemed to enjoy the macaron and milkshake.
Daci & Daci is one of those places where you could just spend a whole day from breakfast until the afternoon and eat your way through the different sandwiches, breads, quiches and cakes on display.
I will definitely go back again when I fly to Hobart for my next visit! Daci & Daci Bakers
