Marzipan Desserts
Leipziger Lerche is a classic German pastry hailing from Leipzig. The dessert resembles a lark, which is where its name originates (Lerche means 'lark' in German). Traditionally, this sweet pastry is made from a shortcrust dough filled with a luscious combination of marzipan, almonds, and a fruit jam, usually cherry or apricot.
