Almond Berry Cake

1h 50m

A Summer celebration cake! This dessert is not only easy to make, but also enjoyable to eat. The crunchy almond cookie layer, followed by a moist cream layer, and coupled with the refreshing taste of seasonal summer berries makes for a perfect combination of textures and flavors!

Here we used a mix of strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, and blueberry, but you can choose the ones you prefer. You can make one big cake or small individual desserts for every guest.
