Lemon Almond Torte

Lemon Almond Torte, before adding the Custard

This was an interesting one, everyone quite enjoyed it but I can't shake the thought that I made it incorrectly? The way it is written, it makes two cakes which come together in three layers, a classic cake, a light meringue, and a gooey-sweet-tart lemon custard-sauce on top. The recipe says to bake the first two layers together and add the lemon after they have cooked and cooled. I'm wondering what will happen if I put all the layers together, and then bake? I'll give both methods a try.

But again, everyone enjoyed it, and we served it with fresh whipped cream. If I were to dress it up, just like the lemon sponge, I might pair it with some mint and fresh raspberries or blueberries.
