Glorious Sweetness

1:36 PM;

Have you guys ever tried the Daim cake from Ikea? Boy, that is some delicious cake! If you haven't, I suggest you go try. And don't you ever forget about the Swedish Meatballs as well! Go try it! So basically I decided to try and duplicate this cake. Went online to search for the recipe. Unfortunately they didn't have the real recipe, but someone managed to figure it out. Roughly.. So I made it yesterday. It looks pretty good haha It was actually pretty nice. But really sweet and I'm worried I might get diabetes lol. It comprises of a pastry cream sandwiched between two meringue layers topped with almond praline and smothered with chocolate. Well here are the pictures!

The two meringue layers

Chocolate-ty goodness

I just had to put the Sweden flag there haha
