Description
Warm, rustic, and comforting – the Mela e Datteri Sbriciolata is our winter nod to classic European-style crumbles, reimagined as a refined individual dessert that’s perfect for chilly days and cosy evenings. This beautifully balanced cake brings together the natural sweetness of dates and apples, encased in a moist, spiced cake and finished with a buttery almond crumble topping that adds irresistible crunch and aroma.
At the heart of this indulgent treat is a salted caramel centre, slowly baked into the middle to create a rich, gooey core that melts into the surrounding fruit and sponge with every spoonful. The caramel’s subtle saltiness enhances the earthy notes of the dates and the fresh tartness of the apple, creating a harmonious flavour profile that is both comforting and indulgent.
The almond crumble on top adds not only a satisfying crunch but also a nutty depth that pairs beautifully with the soft textures of the cake beneath. Lightly golden and gently spiced, this crumble topping elevates the entire dessert into something both familiar and luxurious.
The Mela e Datteri Sbriciolata is individually portioned, making it ideal for a quick treat, an after-dinner dessert, or a takeaway delight on a brisk winter’s day. It’s served warm in-store for the ultimate comforting experience, and we highly recommend enjoying it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a generous dollop of cream to complete the experience.
Whether you’re sitting down in our café or grabbing something delicious to go, this seasonal dessert is designed to deliver all the nostalgic warmth of home baking – with a refined Brunetti Classico twist.
Available in-store and for takeaway, this winter special won’t be around forever. So come in, warm up, and savour the rich flavours of dates, apples, salted caramel, and almond – the perfect dessert for Melbourne’s cooler months.
