Kronans Kaka

Kronans Kaka means The Crown’s Cake. Kronan, the Crown, is an old Swedish name for the army and this cake was served to soldiers for over a century. It was an economical dish as it was baked without flour (which was scarce at the time) and used leftover potato. Though an uncommon ingredient, the potato gives the cake a creamy texture which compliments the wonderful almondy flavour. It is the perfect bake for people looking for a gluten-free treat.
