I made this with angel food cake since I am not a pound cake fan.

I have made this recipe several times already this summer. The almonds give it a delightful crunch. In addition to strawberries, I used a combination of berries (blackberries, blueberries and raspberries) -- yummy! This is truly an impressive dessert.

I just made this for a baby shower and it was a hit. No one ate any of the baby cake I ordered. I left out the almonds and I am not a marshmellow eater but I sure ate them in this. This is one of the BEST receipes I have ever gotten. In just the past week I can't even begin to count how many times I have given this receipe away. The VERY BEST!!!!!!
