- take to fridge to set completely.Remove cake from tin.Melt the bitter chocolateand drizzle over cake.Leave to set and enjoy.
- if using marzipan fill tin half with cake and chocolate mix or add in half way when shaping the sausage with mix.
- Add your marzipan evenly to the middle then add rest of mixture.
- You could use a large old fizzy pop bottle cut that half way lengthways to make sleeve shapes.
- To cool the cake in.
- But do be careful as cut plastic can be very sharp.
- The cake is my original creation, marrying a German tradition with an English one.
