This recipe is from a very old Australian Woman's Weekly circa 1970's and one of the first recipes I made and collected. You can cheat and use a cake mix, use a butter cake.

I'm not a huge fan of almond-flavored desserts, but this cake was surprisingly good. The caramel topping was the perfect balance of sweet and salty, and the cake itself was moist and flavorful.

I've made this cake several times now, and it's always a hit. The flavors are so well-balanced, and the cake is always moist and fluffy. I love that it's not too sweet, either.

This Tosca cake was a delightful treat! The almond flavor in the cake was perfectly complemented by the caramel-like topping. It was also surprisingly easy to make, and it looked just as beautiful as it tasted.
