Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera semua,
Baru kali ini saya berkesempatan mencuba kek yang telah menjadi fenomena suatu ketika dulu dan masih digemari sehingga kini. Kek ini saya buat sempena hari lahir saya dan hubby yang kebetulan serentak dalam bulan April. Buat hanya untuk makan makan bersama famili. Jom kita tengok hasil kerastangan saya pula.

Untuk toppingnya pula saya tambahkan benda alah ni semua...... kinder bueno, badam panggang dan juraian salted caramel dan ganache, fuhhh berganda gandalah kenikmatannnya.
