Vanilla essence

METHOD

Whisk the custard powder, cornflour, egg, egg yolks, Nestlé Full Cream Sweetened Condensed Milk and Nestlé CREMORA mixture until smooth.
Stir in the water. Microwave on high for 7-10 minutes, whisking frequently, to prevent lumps from forming, or cook in a pot on the stovetop, until thickened

Assemble the cake, with layers of sponge and cooled custard, ending with a layer of custard
Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up
For the topping, combine the butter, sugar, honey and salt in a small saucepan. Cook over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes, until melted and combined. Stir in almonds, then set aside and allow to cool for 5 minutes
Spoon the almond mixture over the cake and place in the fridge, until ready to serve
