The Norwegians call this the “weldens beste,” the world’s best. This is my attempt at a visual recipe. Let’s see . . .

Just a pretty picture, strawberry flowers.

I don’t know if this is the world’s “best cake.” It’s my second time at making it . . . the first time it was waaay tooo sweet, so I reduced the sugar by half.. Nice texture from the cake layer, the meringue, and the almonds, and the richness from the (non-sweetened) whipped cream was excellent.

Yum!
