After lunch, cake with coffee is a must. This year, I'm choosing Angel's Touch Cake, a simple combination of soft sponge cake with a delicious cream made from whipped cream, white chocolate, coconut flakes, and almonds. It's perfect for various occasions, and thanks to its unique name, it will also make an impression on All Saints' Day. It's soft, moist, and simply delicious.
