Orange Almond Cake with Buttercream Frosting

Orange Almond Cake with Buttercream Frosting

We were recently invited to a get-together and I offered to make a cake for that evening. I thought of this cake since it had been a while I made it. Orange and almond work beautifully, so in keeping with the theme, I used a bit of orange jam I had with whipped cream and almond pralin I had left over to fill the cake. The buttercream is made with a sugar syrup, so it will hold very well in warm weather or at room temperature for a long time.
