"gebrannte mandeln" with vanilla flavour


every year around christmas i am really really into vanilla.
german speaking girls, help me out on this one: is there an english word for "gebrannte mandeln"?

you only get this sort of candy/pastry this time of year on the christkindlmarkets.
the scent of the almonds enwrap all of the marketplace and it already feels like christmas.
they smell so incredibly delicious and they taste like little pieces of heaven.

Hi,

A friend of mine who knows German tells me that "gebrannte mandeln" translates as "roasted almonds." Literally, it means "burned almonds," as in "burned over the coals."

Hope this helps. They sound delicious!

This may come a few years too late now, but maybe better late than never. Gebrannte Mandeln are burnt almonds in English.

Your blog is great and has a lot of very good recipes I am now tempted to try as well. Thanks for sharing!
