Add the almonds, saffron water, butter, cardamom powder, and rose water.

Mix and cover on low heat for another half hour.Check to see if it has become thick.

Remove lid and on low heat cook until the mixture becomes pudding-like.At this point, you can ladle some either into individual heat resistance dishes or into a larger serving dish.Decorate.Cool in fridge and serve cold.
