I can't keep him away from marzipan. It is his guilty pleasure from his days growing up in Germany. In America, Katy, marzipan is not that popular, but he introduced it to me while we were living in Germany, and for the life of me, I cannot understand why it is not a HUGE hit here in the states. I think it's just because most people haven't tried it.

Thanks so much everyone - it never occurred to me that it would cause such a stir!

I have to say Linda - I'm quite looking forward to a ball or two myself.........

OMG!  Katy, my husband would eat every one of those balls, and then I would eat all of the cake! Yummy!

Very interesting. Looks good. I like Fruit cake and I've never heard of this cake before either. Thanks for posting it.

Thanks Gail - seems to be a very English thing!  My Mum used to make one every Easter and I haven't done so for years and thought it was about time I did.
