How to Make It. Stir yolks and sugar to a souffle; add the butter and one spoon of almond paste that has been chopped; beat the whites of the eggs to a meringue; add part of the meringue, then the flour and baking powder, stir until smooth, last add the rest of the whites. Fill seven little well-buttered jam cups three quarters full, and the rest put in a cake tin for a founda¬ tion large enough to hold the seven cups. Put in a hot oven and bake, time about twelve minutes; when baked turn the small cakes out on a broiler and the other cake on the platter; spread the cake with strawberry preserve, and the little cakes dip in straw¬ berry juice while hot; leave them on the broiler until cold, then frost them with a light fondant chocolate frosting [see my book, “The Swedish, French, American Cook Book”]. Decorate on each with five long silver beads and a round one in the center forming a daisy. Place them on top of the cake foundation and decorate around them with spun sugar in scallops; put the trifle of sugar between each small cake. Inside the ring fill with whipped cream and in the center with a rosette of spun sugar.

Lift it on a platter and decorate with roses from marshmallow on the top and all around raise the little apples with the stem up as the illus¬ tration shows. In the center fill with the marshmallow sauce [see recipe on Page 319 in my large book, “The Swedish, French, American Cook Book”]; sprinkle it with chopped maraschino cherries and in the center of each rose put a half maraschino cherry and between each apple put a dot of the marshmallow.
