The bottom layer was a delicious chocolate sponge, with chocolate ganache butter cream; the middle layer was a zingy lemon sponge, with lemon curd butter cream; the top layer was a moist, light and fresh-tasting fruit cake (quite different to the usual heavy, dark fruit cake), covered with marzipan. The whole lot was covered with ready-to-roll icing (two layers marbled with purple/pink/white icing) and decorated with sugar-paste flowers and rice paper butterflies. The recipe was from the BBC Good Food website and can be found here.
