German Hazelnut Chocolate Marzipan Cake – perfect for parties and keeps for days<\/h2>\n

This simple chocolate nut cake covered with marzipan is AMAZING! Who can say no to a slice of moist nut chocolate cake at any time of the day and if it is made with marzipan and chocolate ganache!? OMG!<\/p>\n

I’m talking about traditional German Baking ingredients like hazelnuts, dark chocolate, marzipan and poppy seeds! Oh yeah…and rum! <\/p>\n

Poppy seeds, marzipan, hazelnuts and chocolate in one glorious German cake! This may sound like a bit of a wild mix at first, but don’t worry! The flavors are nicely balanced and the taste is an absolute stunner.<\/p>\n

The marzipan cover helps keep the hazelnut poppyseed cake wonderfully moist for days. The poppy seeds provide some crunch if you leave them whole. However, I like to grind them up a bit. They harmonize wonderfully with the nutty flavor of the marzipan. We finish the cake with a thick layer of creamy dark chocolate ganache which we pour over the marzipan.<\/p>\n

Roll out marzipan<\/h2>\n
