PINEAPPLE & MARZIPAN CAKE (ANANAS-MARZIPANKUCHEN)
I got this recipe of my auntie, who always brings this round when she feels people need or deserve a little treat. It's really simple and quite quick to do, but it makes a really yummy and moist cake. If you can't get vanilla sugar, you can use 1 tsp vanilla essence instead, or you can make your own by putting about an inch of a vanilla pod in a screw top jar with 1/2 cup of sugar and leave it for a couple of days (the rest will keep).

Tips:
- To achieve a smooth marzipan, use a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
- For a more intense pineapple flavor, use fresh pineapple instead of canned.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular cake pan. Just line the pan with parchment paper to prevent the cake from sticking.
- To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
