FAQs:

Can I prepare the cake only with almond flour?
- It is best to strictly follow the exact recipe as it is tailored to make the perfect texture and structure of this cake; otherwise, it gets ruined.
Why does this pound cake sink?
- The pound cake gets sunken when it doesn’t get baked properly, or the temperature of the oven is too low, so be careful with these things.
