I was really impressed with this cake because it was quick to make and everyone that ate it loved it. If you make this recipe make sure that you whip the heavy cream really well prior to mixing it with the pudding mix because the pudding mix seems to make the whipped cream a lot less stiff. Even though the recipe says that you should not ice the sides of the cake, I made extra whipped cream (instead of two cups, I used three) and mixed that in with the pudding mix so that I could ice the sides of the cake. However, if you use two cups of heavy cream you should have more than enough icing to ice the entire cake. I had so much left over that I made another batch of cake batter and made cupcakes so that I would not waste all of the extra icing. I had a problem drizzling the cake with chocolate, so I think next time I will skip that step since the cupcakes did not get drizzled in chocolate and they tasted great without it.

This Biscotti was fantastic! I did not have oranges to make orange zest, so I used orange extract instead and it tasted great. It got rave reviews and it was extremely easy to make. I also made a batch without toasted almonds for those who do not like nuts, and those came out great too! :)
