Persian Almond Rose Cake // gluten free // treatswithatwist.com

Persian Almond Rose Cake is one of those cakes you’ll love even if you typically only eat cake for the frosting. Trust me, I get it, I’m a frosting shots girl. Cake is usually that thing that’s holding the frosting up off the plate. But this cake is more of a snacking situation. A delicate bite you wash down with tea.
