Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 170C, gas 3. Sift the flour and baking powder, then set aside. Beat the butter and sugar until creamy. Beat in the eggs, adding a little flour after each addition.
  2. Fold in the rest of the flour and the ground almonds. Add the zest and juice from 2 lemons and the milk, and mix until just combined. Divide between 2 x 17cm round cake tins, greased and lined, and bake for 60-70 mins, then allow to cool.
  3. Beat the butter and icing sugar until smooth, then add the cream and zest and juice from 1 lemon. Trim the risen tops of the sponges and cut in half to make 4 even layers. Put a sponge on a plate and spread with buttercream using a palette knife. Repeat with the remaining sponges, then cover the whole cake with the buttercream.
  4. Put the sweets in pans according to colour and add 1 part liquid glucose per 4 parts sweets. Melt over a low heat at first, then turn to high, stirring regularly. Next, pour onto sheets of oiled foil. When cool, break into shards and push into the buttercream.
