New years cake / "kransekage" from scratch

marzipan with nougat

Very happy new year!!! ….quick kransekage, they do not 30 my making ( incl baking) . I made 2 long rods and 24 small).

After I found out how easy it is to make crane cake from scratch, I make them more ready-bought marzipan longer, as I did earlier. It takes the longest time to slip tonsils, but that's my boy gradually expert, so we do it together and it's quickly over 🙂

I do not buy ready-crane cake, there is never the amount of nougat in the middle as we like here in the family 🙂

  1. I make always kransekake as all the ones I know in my home country Norway makes. For exclusively of almonds, icing sugar and egg white. So no need to supplement the flour. Running marzipan mass out påkødkvernen on my kenwood and it will be the nicest doughnut cake made entirely of pure raw materials. I like to glaze over in order not to spoil the taste. May also recommend to get the finished haggling for a walk in freezer, so will be the Nice cool and juicy. Happy new year ! Regards, Vivi Busch-Christensen.

  2. Thanks for the comment Vivi…
    My recipe is also from my Norwegian friends 🙂 – But yes I think easily but can do without flour, It is, of course, as little.
    I have also seen one can get a wreath cake guzzle, so it comes out as the small triangle, thought I was going to try it next year.
    Happy new year
    🙂 H
