I didn't use this cake recipe as it's way too complicated, so I used an old standby dark chocolate cake recipe that is fantastic, and only made 2 layers.  Then I used this frosting recipe.  This is one of the most wonderful chocolate cakes ever!  The frosting is unbelievable - even better after the first day, once it has been allowed to set.  The almonds and toffee bars are wonderful on there - I also sprinkled them liberally in between the two layers.  Another nice thing is it makes plenty of frosting (so many recipes don't).  I had extra. 

Definitely one of my family's all time favorites!

Absolutely fantastic!  This is one of the best cakes I've ever had, bar none.  It's a fair amount of work, but definitely worth it!  Everyone loved it.

I used soy milk in the toffee sauce, instead of heavy cream, and it was great!
