The cake is named after one of the Vignola’s most famous sons, Jacopo Barozzi, who is a famous Renaissance architect. The recipe for Torta Barozzi was first invented by Eugenio Gollini in 1907 in his pasticceria, Pasticceria Gollini which is still in operation in Vignola to this day.
The original ingredients of this dessert have been a well kept secret for several years. Most recreations focus on making a dense, flourless chocolate cake with rum, coffee, and almonds.
