The World’s Best Cake

Makes: Serves 14 to 16

A classic Norwegian Cake, known as the world´s best cake or  Kvæfjordkake, is another one of my top 5 favorite cakes from Norway. 

The world’s best cake is a luxurious and dreamy cake and defiantly has earned its title, and is one of the most loved cakes in Norway.

The world’s best cake is made  in a large sheet pan, the bottom layer is a fluffy yellow cake layer, and the second layer is whipped Meringues with sliced almonds. The two layers are baked together.

After the cake is cooled, I cut the cake in half crosswise and fill it with  diplomat cream, which is lighter than pastry cream yet richer than whipped cream, it is the perfect filling inside this cake.

If you try the World´s Best Cake one time, you will definitely be re-making it again. It is that good; the meringue layer is crispy and chewy in texture, and together with the yellow cake layer and the custard cream makes for one delicious cake.

With Love from Norway.
