I was disappointed with this almond cake. The cake was dry and crumbly, and the meringue and whipped cream filling was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

This almond cake is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe. Otherwise, the cake is moist and flavorful.
