I had to google what Kamut was! Looks good though, I like cakes that use silken tofu, I think it gives a nice bouncy texture.
 
You can always substitute kamut for any other flour.

The cake is very light and freezes well. You can cut it into small squares and freeze or place it in a
plastic or metal tin and it keeps for a few days.
