How it's done

The kids can help at the marked areas .

To prepare

a little butter

Line the base of a square springform pan (approx. 23 cm) with baking paper, close the rim. Grease the sides.

Egg mixture

200 g butter, soft
150 g sugar
1 pinch salt
3 eggs
2 organic lemons

Place the butter in a bowl, add the sugar and salt, beat using the whisk on a mixer. Add the eggs one at a time, continue to beat until the mixture becomes lighter in colour. Grate the zest of the lemons, squeeze the juice from one lemon (yields approx. 50 ml), set aside.

Cake mixture

180 g half-white flour
1 tsp baking powder
50 g flaked almonds

Combine the flour, raising agent and almonds in a second bowl, mix, then fold into the egg mixture. Transfer the cake mixture to the prepared tin.

400 g apricots

Halve the apricots, remove the stones, spread on the dough.

To bake

2 tbsp icing sugar

Approx. 30 mins. in the lower half of an oven preheated to 180 °C. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, prick firmly with a wooden skewer. Mix the icing sugar with the reserved lemon juice, spread on the cake. Remove the tin frame, slide onto a cooling rack and leave to cool.

To decorate

25 g dark chocolate
½ tbsp flaked almonds

Finely chop the chocolate, place in a thin-sided bowl, suspend the bowl over a gently simmering bain-marie, ensuring that the bowl does not touch the water. Melt the chocolate and stir until smooth, transfer to a small disposable piping bag, snip off a corner. Decorate the apricots with the chocolate to make "bees". Make incisions about 5 mm deep into the apricots using a knife. Insert almond flakes as "wings" into the apricots, then allow to dry.
