1. Roughly chop your glace cherries (100g).
2. Pre-heat your oven to 160°C/140°C fan
3. Sprinkle your work surface and rolling pin with a little icing sugar. Take 300g of your your marzipan and roll it out into a circle the same size as your cake. To ruffle the edges as I have done in the images, place a finger below the marzipan circle and gently push down either side (you need to be careful doing this to ensure you don't split the marzipan). Repeat around the edge of the circle.Lay the marzipan over the top of your cake.
