Do you not have simnel cake?Traditional Easter cake - a rich fruit cake, with marzipan covering, decorated with marzipan balls (which represent the disciples, I think).
I didn't make one this year, admittedly, but it is very nice so long as you make your own almond paste, rather than relying on shop-bought marzipan.
If you're ever in England around Easter, I'll make one and give you a slice (that's an easy promise to make).
