White Almond Wedding Cake
Wonderful! I used cake flour instead of all-purpose, but I'm sure it would have been equally good as written. I made 3 9-inch rounds and baked at 325 for 25 minutes - they were perfect. I filled my cake with the almond custard filling from this site and it was like something you'd buy at a fancy bakery. Ohh la lal!

German Chocolate Cake Frosting II
No problems getting this to thicken up as written, no need for corn starch. Just keep cooking and stirring. I would recommend using a box cake mix - this frosting is so good it steals the show. It would be a shame to overshadow a fancy, from-scratch cake.

Almond Custard Filling
I cut back on the almond extract ... but shouldn't. It would have been perfect as written. It made enough to fill a triple, 9-inch layer cake (might have been a little much for just a double layer cake, but then you could eat the rest!) I'm going to make again with lemon extract. Wow is this a fantastic recipe.
