Cake Donut grandmother

The cake that I present today in this post has been the subject a preparation made in a cooking class a few years ago and I was particularly impressed with its softness enclosed in a crispy and crumbly. The predominant flavors are given by the scent of almonds and oranges, and almonds because of the presence of this pie was christened 'Avola cake'. Imagine a base of puff pastry, stuffed with a soft cake like a daisy and cover with meringue. Personally I consider suitable to accompany a cup of tea with friends.
