I made this over the weekend and it was DELICIOUS. The texture is so tender and light. Thank you for the recipe, and my pullman pans are getting a great workout thanks to this Substack. I had some leftover blood orange syrup which made a delicious addition to my G&T on Saturday along with a leftover twist of peel. 🧡
This was SO good, thank you! I’m already thinking about making another since I finished off the last of it yesterday. Do you think you could use fruit juice -like cherry or plum- in place of the citrus juice? 🙂
Can you use marzipan or anything else to sub for the almond paste? The recipe calls for 250g... but it comes in 200g packs, and I don't want to buy two (not sure what I'd use the other 150g for!)

Can't wait to try this recipe :)
For those of us in the US, do we still use 5 large eggs, or is there a weight conversion?

Can we use almond meal instead
My Pullman pan has holes in the bottom. Should I poke holes through the parchment paper with a skewer?
