Directions

  1. 1

    Dice apricots and figs very finely. Mix apricots, figs, sesame, nuts, sultanas, orange peel, cinnamon and flakes. Beat the egg whites with the whisks of the hand mixer until stiff. Add honey and sugar and continue beating for about 10 minutes (the sugar must be dissolved). Put the egg white mixture into a wide, flat saucepan, fold in the flake-fruit mixture and let everything simmer for about 20 minutes over a low heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon. Place half of the baking wafers slightly overlapping (glue the excess together with some water) to form a rectangle (approx. 24 x 30 cm). Pour the still warm mixture onto the wafers and press them flat evenly with your hands.

  2. 2

    Place the remaining wafers on top, overlapping as well, and press down slightly. Place a heavy board on top and leave to stand overnight at room temperature. Cut into rhombs (approx. 3.5 x 5 cm). Stir icing sugar with orange juice until smooth. Pour a little bit of icing on each slice. Decorate with pearls and sprinkle with cinnamon
