Memo to myself

Accompanying the cheeses at Lula Cafe was a dense bread/fruitcake type thing they called panforte. It wasn't particularly sweet, and it complemented the cheeses really nicely. I've found some recipes on the web, and the one in the Il Fornaio Baking Book sounds the closest to what we had. Many of the web recipes contain cocoa, which definitely was not in the thing we had.
There's another recipe in a book called The Cheese Course (Janet Fletcher) that explicitly mentions serving it with cheeses, but that one has cocoa and fennel, which also wasn't in our app.
