That you can make it all year round with whatever fruits you fancy (fresh or frozen) and it always turns out well.
Almond, Lemon and Mascarpone Cake
I only had to see a very fluffy sponge cake whose ingredients listed almond flour and lemon to think it had to be delicious — with how much we love tarta de Santiago at home, that cake promised it would undoubtedly remind me of it, but with a more cake-like crumb. And so it was — it was a hit with our friends!
