This is an all-made-from-scratch Almond Cake my Italian grandmother made for us back in the 1960s.
The cake recipe came from her Italian mother she learned to make this in Rome, Italy.
Although the cake is revised with a little drizzle of icing just for decoration, nothing was on her original cake, and was baked on a very plain simple pie plate pan.
Through the years we adapted her recipe just a bit for presentation, you can make the simplicity of this by just leaving it topped with sugar and sliced almonds.
This can is rich in almond flavor and the perfect snack cake any time of the day!
