Honey Almond Nougat

Honey almond is the nougat everyone knows, and the one to judge a nougat maker by: sweet with honey, studded with roasted almonds, with a hint of vanilla in the background. Nougat & Nice's recipe leans harder on honey than a standard nougat does, so the honey flavour comes through clearly.

Pastry chef Sarah Sorensen started Nougat & Nice in Bunbury, Western Australia, in 2016, with a nougat recipe she developed herself. Every batch is still made in the business's own kitchen in the South West, and the factory in East Bunbury is open to the public, with a share of its outlet sales going to local community groups, clubs and schools.

Slice it thin to serve with coffee, or give the box to someone who remembers nougat from the Royal Show.
