Pistachio is a great ingredient in desserts. Not only does it add great flavor and texture but its extraordinary color can transform a simple dessert into an elegant and delicious one. This pistachio strawberry cake is a very classy dessert that is rich in aromas.

Anna Olson's Gluten-Free Pistachio and Strawberry Meringue Cake
In addition to the already mentioned (and very tasty) pistachios there is a palette of flavors including strawberry lemon and hazelnuts.
Hazelnuts are present in both the cake and the Italian meringue hazelnut cream. Lemon is a powerful antioxidant that helps the strawberries retain their beautiful color and enhances their aroma.
You might be wondering why I decided to mix hazelnuts with pistachios. It’s actually a great combination. The hazelnuts replace flour in the cake so their flavor doesn’t come through and the pistachios have the space to shine and create an interesting balance with the hazelnut cream.
