A flaky crust surrounds a pastry cream in this traditional dessert from the Basque region of France. The name means simply “Basque Cake.” In the Basque language, the cake is called “Etxeko biskotxa” or “cake of the house.”

14. Hazelnut Crepe Cake 

This cake’s decorative garnish is toasted hazelnuts dipped in caramel and hung to allow the streams of sugar to harden. You can’t go wrong with hazelnut and chocolate.
