Thanks so much for the mention, Madonna! I love this cake and it’s so delicious with fresh fruit and whipped cream. I can’t wait to see what else you think of making in that beautiful pan 🙂
I am thanking you Susan. This is such a delicious cake and I am all in for the whipped cream and and fresh fruit. I have a chocolate lover so I think I can work something out and I’m thinking something lemon. How about some lemon curd swirled into that whipped cream or some ice cream and meringue and turn it into a small baked Alaska? I especially like the size of this cake, and who ever heard of making a one egg cake?
I love everything about this recipe! And I had no idea about that pan – definitely putting it on my list – love that the ridges serve as guides for slices – brilliant!!!
The only thing that could be better is to have a slice of that cake in front of me right now… guess I better go and get that pan!!!
Jenna, I am not sure. I poured 2 1/2 cups of water into the pan to check to see how much batter the pan holds. If you try it in a bundt let me know how it works. I’ll add it to the post.
I am not promoting purchasing a pan, but I live a smaller life now that my children are grown and I was happy to find a cheap way of having my cake and eating it too. 🙂
I love this! The fact that the butter is melted before adding makes me really want to make it. (Classic “cream” cakes–where you have to cream the softened butter and sugar–are a little trick sometimes….). Thanks for this. That pan looks great, too. And the Bed Bath and Beyond coupons–I have a stack of them waiting to be used.
I do hope you make it and let me know your thoughts. It goes together so quickly. I froze part of my cake so I am hoping that when I defrost it tastes as good as I think. It will be nice to have something to pull out for company.
Those coupons are awesome! We always have a bag of them in the car in case we decide to stop at Bed, Bath, & Beyond when we’re out. Anyway, speaking of awesome, this is! Super recipe — looks terrific, and I just know it tastes even better. Thanks!
I putting my baggie of coupons in the car right now.
I think you would like this cake John. I don’t know if you read any of the other comments, but Marsha read my post and baked one and her husband ate two pieces. Made my day. 🙂
Thanks Karen, I fixed it. Oddly enough the recipe that comes with the pan said it was an alternative. I hope you will make it and let me know if you have an additional changes.

This sounds lovely, do you think it would work in a bundt pan?

I am inspired. You girls are always coming up with the best ideas. Will be getting that pan and making that cake. Thanks Madonna and Susan.
Ms. Lemon says
Susan makes some really good food. I always love to see what she has been cooking as I love seeing what you are making.
Don’t forget your coupon.

After I read your post I made this cake. It was wonderful still hot out of the oven. My husband ate two pieces
Ms. Lemon says
I am thrilled. It is a lovely cake.
Mimi says
This looks so beautiful! Love the color of the inside of the cake. Makes me wish I baked more…
Ms. Lemon says
I was impressed with the crumb of this cake, especially with such few ingredients and only one egg.
Thanks for stopping by.
Lorrie says
Looks like a wonderful cake. Almonds are a favourite here, too.
Ms. Lemon says
Thanks for stopping by Lorrie. I am so happy with this cake. I hope you will give it a try.

Audrey says
This cake looks so simple, yet so delicious. Almond-based cakes are always a hit! I love Scandinavian baking …. probably my favorite, after French 🙂
Ms. Lemon says
I am just amazed at its simplicity. And, yes on the French cooking/baking.

My husband loves a simple cake like this. Thanks for sharing…by the way, I think you forget to mention the almonds in the recipe itself. 🙂
Ms. Lemon says
Thanks Karen, I fixed it. Oddly enough the recipe that comes with the pan said it was an alternative. I hope you will make it and let me know if you have an additional changes.
Peggy Butler says
I believe I bought your cakes at a boutique, but the gluten free ones. Is there a recipe for it using gluten free flours to make this fresh at home?
Ms. Lemon says
You must have me confused with someone else, but the idea of a gluten free cake sounds delish. Let me know if you make one how it turns out.
