Instructions

Dip the cranberries in the egg white, then roll in caster sugar a few times until well coated. Leave to set (or use glac cherries instead, even easier and no need to frost with egg white).

Ingredients you will need

Caster Sugar

Cranberries

Egg Whites

Cherries

Roll

Dip

Brush just the top of the cake with a little jam.

Ingredients you will need

Jam

Roll out the marzipan to slightly larger than the top of the cake, lay on top of the cake, press down and trim flush to the edges of the cake.

Ingredients you will need

Marzipan

Roll

Mix a dribble of water at a time into the fondant icing sugar, until its a smooth, stiff consistency that wont run. Pile on the top of the cake. Push to the edges with a palette knife so it eases down the sides a little. Make a wreath from the sage and bay, then add a few of the frosted cranberries (or glac cherries if using instead).

apricot or raspberry jam, warmed and sieved 300grams

Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port

Cake can be paired with Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
