Subject: Italian pastry
Hello Phaedrus,
Im looking for a recipe for an Italian pastry called "Pastichot". I believe
the spelling is correct. It is a filled pastry that is cooked in a sort of
muffin pan and filled with a custard creme, I can buy them at Moio's Italian
Pastry Shop in Monroeville, Pa., but I like to bake and would like to try to
make some of them.
Thank you for any help,
Patricia
PS They dont seem to make them like they did 50 years ago. Now too much
substitutions with ingredients.
Hi Patricia,
Luckily, Moio's has a website at : Moios, so I was
able to determine from their product list that you mean "pasticciotti".
There is what appears to be a very good recipe here, with a photo:
:Diana's Desserts
Moio's recipe is, of course, not available.

Hello Linda,
I found about a dozen "Sunshine Cake" recipes, many that include the
ingredients that you give. However, I'm not sure what you mean by a "two
part pan", and all the recipes that I found called for either a tube pan or
an angel cake pan. See below for examples.
Phaed
Sunshine Cake
5 eggs, separated
1/2 c. cold water
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. flour (cake & sifted)
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. vanilla
Beat egg yolks until pale yellow, add water and beat few more minutes. Add
sugar to eggs, also vanilla. Beat until fluffy. Beat in little flour with
egg beater then add rest of flour gradually, folding in each addition
thoroughly. Beat egg whites separately until almost stiff. Fold into other
mixture gradually. Bake 45 minutes (approximately) in a 325 degree oven or
until it springs back after touched.

Sunshine Cake
8 eggs, separated
1 1/2 c. cake flour
1 1/2 c. sugar, divided
1/2 c. cold water
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. lemon flavoring
Place egg whites in large mixer bowl. Add salt and beat until frothy; then
add cream of tartar and beat on high speed until egg whites hold soft peaks.
Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and beat on medium speed until well mixed. In
small mixer bowl beat egg yolks until they are light and lemon colored.
Gradually add 1/2 cup of sugar, alternately with 1/2 cup cold water until
blended well. Add vanilla and lemon flavoring and beat a little more. Sift
flour and 1/2 cup sugar together. Take bowl off mixer and fold the flour
and sugar into egg yolk mixture. Pour egg yolks mixture over egg whites in
large bowl and fold together lightly. Pour entire mixture into 12 inch tube
pan and bake 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees or until done. Invert pan to cool
for about an hour. Best to use pan with removable bottom. This is a large
cake. Do Not grease pan.

7 eggs
1 1/2 c. white sugar

spins a thread. Pour in whites of eggs and beat. Add vanilla. Beat yolks
until lemon color and add whites. Fold sifted flour and cream of tartar
into mixture. Pour into tube pan. Bake 325, 50-60 minutes.

I had never heard of "saskatoons". They are also known as "juneberries" and as
"shadberries" or "service berries.". I don't guess they grow in the Southern US.
