This is one of my favourite songs of all time. Whenever I'm feeling down, I find myself humming it and feel just a bit better.

My mother loves Battenberg cake but she can't get it in Canada, so I decided to make her some instead. I didn't bake two separate cakes to get the tile pattern, but it tastes just as good.

This is the recipe we used as the base, substituting caster with fine white sugar. I would totally recommend it! The marzipan, apricot jam and sponge cake work so well together. 😊
