As Wayne mentioned, "almond powder" is probably an alternative term
for what in the U.S. is commonly called "almond flour". It's very
finely ground nuts and is available in both toasted and plain forms.
You can make your own but if using a blender or processor be careful
not to overdo, which will result in an oily paste.

Almond extract is entirely different.
