Seduced by the shape and colour of figs I have strayed from my usual style of naked cakes.
This month’s seasonal cake is inspired by the bell shape of the fig itself. A rich vanilla and almond sponge is stacked with mascarpone cream and figs which have been slowly cooked down with honey and pureed to a paste.
The outer case of icing is a swiss meringue buttercream with a hint cinnamon and honey.
