Hi Emily, I love it that you used ground almonds, I think that I would have preferred it with almonds! Looking forward to next bake with almonds! :)
ReplyDeleteEmily, your cake has such a lovely golden hue! Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Emily! Must've tasted great with almonds.
ReplyDeletehmm..like seeing a different version of the cake. Ground almonds..good idea too!
ReplyDeleteoh, and also thanks for sharing your views on the cake on the q&a page!
ReplyDeleteAlmonds is such a good sub. There is something delicate about the almond flavor. I love to bake with almond flavoring, as well as the nuts.
ReplyDeletewaaa i love the pic when its just out fr the oven... looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteHi Emily, mmm almond sounds like a wonderful substitution! Your cake looks really lovely :)
ReplyDeleteHi Emily, love the look of your cake, looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteThe use of almond meal instead of hazelnut meal is a great substitution idea. It is finer in texture and less nutty in taster. Your cake looks delicious :D
