Apricot Cakes

Roll out a piece of puff-paste or trimmings, and spread over a baking-sheet, first winding it on a rolling-pin and then unwinding. Spread some apricot marmalade evenly all over the paste. Then cut some of the rolled paste into thin narrow strips and roll it like a cord. Arrange these strips over the marmalade, finishing off the ends and soldering to the edge of the paste by moistening with water. Lay icing sugar along the bars in some fancy designs and bake in a moderately hot oven. When done, cut into oblong pieces, say two by three inches and pile one upon another on a dish decorated with almonds cut into various shapes and colored.
