Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar until fluffy.

Melt butter and mix with the egg mixture, adding vanilla extract.

Sift together baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt; fold into the egg mixture.

Gradually add milk and lemon zest, stirring until combined.

Gently fold in the cooked tagliatelle until evenly coated.

Pour the mixture into a greased cake pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Once cooled, frost with cream cheese and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Decorate with fresh fruit and almonds before serving.
