Orange Almond Cake

"This cake has no frosting, but that's how we like our cakes! The nut topping is pretty and tastes great. You can serve this as a coffeecake. My husband eats it for breakfast once in a while, with a cup of tea. This cake is so easy to make and has a good flavor."

Delicious!! Loved the orange flavor from the juice, zest and the crunch the almonds added. Such an easy cake to make. Made for ZWT8

The flavor here is fantastic. The orange is amazingly bright with fresh squeezed juice and you want to savor each bite, no scarffing here. I replaced the sugar with Splenda. Made for ZWT 8 Spain.
