Sugee cake!
Sugee cake is a Eurasian specialty, where everything depends upon the texture. It is made from semolina (which accounts for the grainy texture), almonds, and loads of eggs and butter.
This particular cake was made by my cousin for my and my grandmother's joint birthday party last month. It had a great texture and was just a little moist.
The amusing thing about this dinner was that we had a great dessert spread. That's what happens with pot lucks! The cake was planned but I didn't realise we would be getting bread pudding and thai jellies as well. Oh well, the calorie limit was busted anyway.
ha, my cake :)...glad you liked it and sorry it wasn't prettier icing. Must work on that bit.
