  • In a separate bowl whisk fresh cream, condensed milk and almond essence together until well combined.

  • Transfer the cake batter into the baking tin and place it in a pre-heated oven at 180 degree Celsius for 30 minutes.
  • Prick with a toothpick in the middle of the cake to check if it’s done.
