Make your own marzipan
Okay, it's easier to buy, but it's far tastier if you make your own. This makes enough marzipan to cover a 20.5cm/8in cake...
In a large bowl or mixer, combine 275g/10oz unrefined icing sugar and 275g/10oz ground almonds, and about 5tbsp orange flower water or rosewater - enough to make a fairly stiff but pliable paste. Roll out on a surface dusted with icing sugar. Brush cake with warmed apricot jam. Smooth marzipan over cake and down sides and leave to dry for 24 hrs before covering with ready-rolled fondant icing.
