Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/ Gas Mark 4. Grease and line an 18cm / 7 inch shallow square baking tin. Cut a strip of double baking paper and grease it. Use this to divide the tin in half or use 2x 1lb loaf tins instead to separate the mixture. 2. Cream the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until pale and fluffy. Gently beat in the eggs and vanilla extract, gradually adding in the flour. Spoon half the mixture into a separate bowl and colour it with a few drops of food colouring. 3. Spoon the plain mixture into half the prepared baking tin or into one of the loaf tins. Spoon the coloured mixture into the other half of the tin or the other loaf tin. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes. Turn out and leave to cool on a wire rack. 4. When cool, trim the edges and cut the cake portions lengthways in half, making four equal parts. Warm the jam in a small saucepan. Brush two sides of each cake portion with some jam and stick them together to give a chequerboard effect 5. Knead the marzipan and roll out to a rectangle wide enough to wrap around the cake. Either, brush the outside of the cake with the remaining jam or brush the marzipan with the remaining jam. Then place the cake on the marzipan and wrap the marzipan around the cake making a neat seam. Finally sprinkle with sugar. (Useful hints can be found on Youtube)
