Directions:
Spread apricot jam over cake and trim off about 1/2 inch of cake on all sides. Roll out the marzipan and cover the top of cake. Cut the cake into 1 1/2-inch squares.
A 15"x10" sponge cake makes about 60 petit fours. Let the cake layer age 1 day before cutting for best results.
Petit Fours can be cut from a single layer of cake, or if the layer is thin, several layers of sponge cake can be sandwiched with marzipan, jam, or pastry cream. They can be cut into squares or shapes, such as diamonds, rounds, ovals, triangles, or hearts. The size of a petit fours for should be one or two bites, no more than 2 inches along the longest measure. The glaze should cover all sides.
