Gland (translated as Acorn) or Salambo? Besides being invented in the early 19th century, it is one of the most famous pastries that any French person can find in local stores. The gland takes its name from its resemblance to the oak fruit, meaning an acorn. It is filled with Kirsch or Grand Marnier® custard flavored, and glazed with cooked sugar.
The salambo, the pink variant of the gland, owes its name to the Phocaean goddess considered in Greek mythology as the mother of Aphrodite. Apart from the colors, the main difference between these two pastries lies in the liquor used in their preparation. Kirsh for the salambo and Grand Marnier® for the gland.
