- Mix the flour, fine ground almonds, cinnamon and cornflour, gently lift under the eggwhites until combined, set aside.
- Grate the marzipan with the milk and rum, then puree them together, set aside. In a bowl cream the butter and icing sugar, then add each egg yolk separately, mixing them in. Add the marzipan puree. Grate and add the orange peel, mix in. Gently lift the egg white mix under.
- Now you scoop about 2 and to 4 tablespoons of the mixture into your cake tin depending on size of tin and spread evenly across the bottom of the tin. Bake in oven for a few minutes until slightly browned, remove from oven, slightly cool layer, spread another 2 tablespoons of mixture over repeat process until you used up all mixture. Depending on size of tin this makes about 10 to 12 layers.
- Cool the cake, lift out of tin. Cut the cake lengthways in half. Spread with jam. (optional) top with other half of cake.
- Melt chocolate gently with a spoonful palm fat or readymade chocolate cake covering.
