Description

This marzipan cake is a real eye-catcher on every coffee table! The juicy cake base, refined with chocolate shavings, harmonizes wonderfully with the fruity raspberry jam and the delicate marzipan layer. The homemade chocolate horseshoes and bows make the cake a special piece of jewelry. I especially like to bake this cake for birthdays or Christmas, because it not only tastes delicious, but also looks great. The preparation takes a little while, but the effort is definitely worth it! A tip: The chocolate decoration can be prepared well and stored in a cool place.
