I'm not rules at all cake with anise. And this combination is very interesting. I wonder what will taste this cake.

but Vesi, how to explain? For someone who did not kusval - exotic, but nice. Almonds are felt and crunching, and the overall flavor is very intense. I can not eat more than 3-4 spoons, but I can every day to eat:-) Furthermore, Moroccans it served with tea, I like milk:-) And once I was confused with soft butter and spreads a slice of halva as we have done.

Something unusual for our taste, but just so interesting and must try!
