It will transport you to a serene place and trigger happy memories of holidays and travels. It really is that good!
Wow! I’m hooked. This cake is so delicious. Thank you Cathy

This cake / torte was a hug ‘hit’ in my house. We loved it! A side of fresh fruit and a small amount of home made whipped cream (not required- but a nice touch) added to this tasteful dessert. Garam Marsala ! Who knew ??
Will be baking another one for our family’s Easter picnic. I’m looking forward to looking at their surprised faces.
Thanks, Darlene, for letting me know. Yes, it’s unique and very tasty!
