This is a homemade cake with a different type of bottom as it is made with almond pastry. This cake will not be a favorite among kids, it is meant for adults as the coffee taste comes out quite nicely. Though even if you are not a fan of coffee, the mix with almond gives it a lovely touch. It is perfect to serve this cake after a romantic couple dinner or when there will be only adults at the party !
