Question
I wanted to ask if there is an issue with making a nut cake for Rosh Hashanah?
Answer
Good evening
It is customary not to eat nuts on Rosh Hashanah, and therefore many communities refrain from eating any food that contains a significant amount of nuts, where the dish is named after them.
However, it seems permissible to eat foods that contain a small and unnoticeable amount of nuts.
Happy New Year
