The traditional favorite, made with walnuts, is layered with apricot jam and finished with a glossy chocolate glaze. It’s rich, nostalgic, and deeply satisfying, just like grandma used to bake.
Gerbeaud keeps well at room temperature for up to one week when stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Due to its layered structure and chocolate glaze, it’s best kept away from heat to prevent melting or softening.
Refrigeration is optional but can help maintain freshness, especially in warmer climates. For longer storage, Gerbeaud slices can be frozen for up to two months—wrap them tightly and thaw at room temperature before serving.
