I was looking for an evening snack, and I found this five-pointed star of semi-sweet spice cake topped with slivered toasted almonds and sesame seeds at a little shop around the corner from my hotel. The nuts and seeds made the tender cake quite chewy. I broke off a little piece in my hotel room and poured some Nicaraguan rum on it, and that was good! I tried to save a piece for my morning coffee, as this would have made a great coffee cake, but I couldn't resist pouring more rum on it and eating it all at once.
Location: A little tienda on 4th Street NE, Leon, Nicaragua. Date: February 24, 2023.
