"Where’s best? ― Melrose & Morgan, Primrose Hill."
"This one from Melrose & Morgan is a gently spiced and deliciously light fruit recipe with layers of marzipan throughout and a traditional scorched marzipan topping."
"The traditional Simnel Cakes, with marzipan balls representing the apostles, are a lightly spiced, citrusy moist cake packed full of apple-soaked fruits and their secret ingredient: marmalade (oops, sorry, not so secret now!). There is a generous layer of marzipan in the centre and then a hand-toasted marzipan layer on top. ‘Almondy and fruity’ was the verdict, and also ‘tastes like Gran made it,’ which of course is high praise indeed."
"British deli Melrose and Morgan has a mouth-wateringly moist take on the historic recipe. The apple soaked sultanas pack a fruity punch that is balanced by a pinch of spice and topped off with homemade marzipan. It is particularly delicious when toasted and slathered in butter."
