Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom.
- Sift both flours, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl; set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the egg yolks and sugar on medium-high speed until doubled in volume and pale yellow, 2 to 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the butter in four parts, beating until completely combined after each, 1 to 2 minutes total. With the mixer on low speed, add flour mixture, beating until combined.
- Transfer batter to prepared pan; with a small offset spatula, spread batter and smooth top. (If necessary, chill batter for 10 minutes before smoothing.) Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Remove pan from refrigerator. Brush top with beaten egg, and mark a crosshatch pattern with a knife. Brush again with egg. Bake until cake is deep golden brown and edges pull away from sides of pan, 40 to 45 minutes. Cover with foil if browning too quickly.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Remove cake from pan, and slice while still warm.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine yeast with 2/3 cup water and the orange flower water. Let sit until bubbly. In a large bowl, combine the flours, salt and yeast mixture. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough until smooth. Butter a large bowl and add dough. Cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, 30 to 60 minutes. Place in refrigerator to firm up, about 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, pound chilled butter into a 5-inch square. Cover with plastic wrap and let come almost to room temperature; it should have an icing-like texture. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a 10-inch disk. Place butter on top and fold dough up and around it to cover.
- Working quickly, roll out dough so that it is 2 feet long and 1 foot wide. Using a pastry brush, brush off excess flour. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons sugar, and fold into thirds as if folding a business letter. Turn 90 degrees, sprinkle with 3 tablespoons sugar, roll out to 2 feet long and 1 foot wide, and fold into thirds. Repeat 2 more times, scraping up sticky areas. Avoid using too much flour.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter and sugar a 9-inch glass pie plate. Place dough in plate, tucking corners under. Let rise in a warm place until soft and puffy, 1 to 2 hours. Brush surface with melted butter, and sprinkle with a generous amount of sugar and a little orange flower water. Bake until risen and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. If top browns before bottom, cover with foil. The bottom should be hazelnut brown. Remove from oven, slice and serve warm.

Steps:
- Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl and set aside.
- Cream margarine/butter with the sugar until fluffy and smooth.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time and beat until mixture becomes nice and smooth.
- Add in the lemon zest along with the lemon juice into the margarine batter and mix well.
- Now gradually mix in the flour mixture to form the final batter.
- Make sure the batter is smooth.
- Finally, fold the walnuts into the batter.
- Pour batter into prepared/greased loaf pan (e. g. a 9 X 5 one).
- Before putting it in the oven, sprinkle white sugar generously over the top of the batter so that most of the top layer has a bit of sugar over it.
- Bake in the oven (that was preheated at 180 degrees Celcius) for 1 hour (might need a bit more time depending on the oven) or when a tooth pick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Serve warm or cold!
