For those who don't know, it has 11 balls on the top. One for each apostle. Apart from Judas who isn't allowed on the cake.
Ingredients:
175g butter or margarine
100g golden granulated sugar
75g white granulated sugar
230g white self raising flour
3 large organic eggs
500g good quality mixed dried fruit
Dash of milk
75g glace cherries - sliced
Pinch ground Cinnamon
Pinch ground ginger
Pinch All Spice
Approx 750g shop bought golden marzipan
Couple of tablespoons of apricot jam
Method:
Preheat oven to 160
Grease and line a deep spring form baking tin.
In the food mixer blitz the butter, eggs and sugar until smooth. Add the flour, milk and spices and blitz. Stir in the dried fruit.
Roll out about 400g marzipan and cut out a layer of marzipan to go in middle of cake. Put half the mixture in the tin. Put in the marzipan layer. Top with remaining cake mixture.
Place in oven for approx two hours. It is done when it is risen and a skewer test is clear. Leave overnight in tin to cool completely.
The next day remove from tin and remove all the lining paper.
Roll out another marzipan circle. Also roll 11 little apostle balls. Melt some apricot jam and smooth over top of cake. Place your cut circle on top. Fix your apostle balls with either a little of the jam left in the pan or some egg white.
Done. Even if you don't like marzipan it is a great centrepiece to have around over the Easter weekend. I'm not sure ours will last that long.

Looks lovely! So does the pottery but you can't eat that. I suppose that is what they mean when they say the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Cracked teeth on the cupcake. Hope your tum is feeling well enough for you to tuck in to the cake and easter biscuits (though Jonny may have mixed feelings about having to share the spoils). I guess he can have the extra ball out of the 11 apostles. Poor old Judas. Hung himself and now not even allowed on baked products. Your church morning sounded good. It sounds like a really supportive congregation. I'm glad. Thinking of you (and the other JC) as ever. Much love. John
Hey. Tum finally settling. Bring on the cake (although the pottery one to be admired rather than eaten.)
Very fantastic and good effort.
