The almond crust is more crunchy as I pre-cook it before mixing with honey & butter. But I do not understand how come the almond crust cannot be stick well on the cake. Ann do not like the cocoa taste. She said it is bitter. However I believe majority of kids love chocolate flavor so much. She just like the plain one. Next round I have to pour in the toppings to bake together with the cake to let the almond crust stick together. Hopefully it will be more success next round. Looking forward!

 Yummy!
Enjoying
The orange taste is not strong enough. The honey I had at home is not enough to coat every piece of almond flakes. The almond flakes is not crunchy as I didn't pre heat it. However, my family everyone enjoying it very much. Ann alone already clear 1/4 of the cake. It really thumbs up & my friends said it really look like from bakery shop. Haha:) Great to hear  that but still room of improvement.:)

Butter Cake

Supposed I wanted to make a Marble Butter Cake but failed. I didn't made the cocoa powder mixture by just adding some cocoa powder on the top of the cream batter. Will try it again next time. However, The result still good, and found out that today is more soft that the previous attempt. Get the recipe Here.
