Used as a base or for layered gâteaux, dacquoise is a traditional preparation from the region surrounding the town of Dax in southwestern France. Due to the high sugar content of dacquoise, sometimes the paper is difficult to remove. To fix this problem turn the cooked dacquoise over and moisten the parchment paper with simple syrup until it is easily peeled off.
