Time 1h40m

Yield Cuts into 12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

250g butter , softened, plus extra for greasing
175g golden caster sugar
5 eggs , beaten
250g self-raising flour , plus an extra 2 tbsp
1 tsp baking powder
zest 1 orange , plus 2 tbsp of the juice
250g natural marzipan , coarsely grated (easiest if chilled beforehand)
½ tsp almond essence, optional
200g glacé cherry , halved
100g icing sugar , sifted
50g toasted flaked almond
12 natural glacé cherries
zest 1 orange

Steps:

Heat oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3 and butter and line a 20cm round, loose-bottomed deep cake tin. Beat the butter and sugar together with electric beaters or a tabletop mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, 250g flour, baking powder, orange zest and juice and beat well till thick, creamy and evenly mixed.
Toss cherries in the extra 2 tbsp flour and fold into the batter along with grated marzipan and almond essence (if using). Spoon into the prepared tin, level and bake for 1 hr 30 mins, or until well risen and golden. A skewer will come out clean when ready. Leave to cool in tin for 10 mins, then turn onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
Mix the icing sugar with just over 1 tbsp water to make a loose but not-too-runny icing. Scatter the almonds over the top of the cake and position the 12 glace cherries around the edge, using a dot of the icing to fix. Drizzle the icing over the cake and finish with a scattering of orange zest.

To make the marzipan, put the ground almonds, icing sugar and egg yolks in a bowl. Mix with a spatula, gradually adding the lemon juice, until the marzipan is smooth with a doughy consistency. Form a ball or a sausage shape on a surface liberally dusted with icing sugar, wrap in cling film and refrigerate.Preheat the oven to 170C/325F/gas 3. Butter and flour a 9x5 inch loaf tin.
To make the cake batter, mix the oil and sugar in a bowl and add the vanilla extract. Add the flour, salt and the bicarb of soda and mix in – the mixture will resemble wet sand. Add the buttermilk and mix into a greasy, smooth lump of dough. Stir in the glace and the dried cherries.
Roll the marzipan through the cling film to a rectangle the size of the loaf tin - I used half the amount so the cake wasn’t overpoweringly sweet; the rest will freeze well for another occasion. Spoon half the cake batter into the tin, place the marzipan layer on top and cover with the rest of the cake mix - it needn’t be smooth or even.
Bake for about 45-50 minutes until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. Cool in the tin, dust with icing sugar before serving if you like.
