Questions & Replies

I have been making this fabulous Solo almond cake for years. My son is gluten free and another family member is alergic to eggs. Can I substitute the flour and eggs in this recipe?

Hi folks, My grown son just ask for this cake again for his birthday, but I have a problem. I live in Hawaii & can't find the Solo almond 'paste' in cans like I used to on the mainland. I have another son in Colorado who tells me he can't find it in cans either. However, he can find the Solo paste in the little boxes & he keeps me well stocked up with those. So my question is - how do I substitute the Solo almond paste in boxes for the Solo almond 'paste' in cans for this memorable cake? My sons & I thank you for any help you can give! Marion

This is one gorgeous, delicious cake! I found that people either love almond baked goods or hate them. The lovers swooned when they tasted it. It's light as air, moist and very 'classy' tasting, as in gourmet baking, I sprinkled sliced almonds on top of the icing, also made mini cupcakes and small loaves to give as gifts, and watched people scarf down four or five of the mini cupcakes in one sitting!

This is such a good cake recipe! I made this as Rita wrote it and it turned out wonderful, moist and delicious. This recipe is open to so many tweaks and I think next time I'll sprinkle sliced almonds over the glaze....pretty and delicious! Thanks Rita, good one!
