Steps:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line the base of 2 x 18cm round sandwich tins.
- Start with the chocolate sponges. Put all the ingredients in a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until the mixture comes together smoothly. Working quickly, weigh the batter, then spread exactly half in each tin. Bake for 30 mins - when you poke a skewer into the middle, it should come out clean. Cool in the tins for 15 mins, then carefully turn out onto wire racks to finish cooling while you make the raspberry-rose sponges.
- Clean the tins, then grease and line as above. Whizz the freeze-dried raspberries and flour together until no lumps of raspberry remain. Tip into a mixing bowl, add the butter, sugar, eggs, almonds, rose water and yogurt, and beat together as above. When smooth, beat in a little pink food colouring bit by bit until you get a nice colour - it will fade a bit during baking. Weigh, divide between the tins and bake and cool as above.
- Once cool, gently cover and chill the sponges for 30 mins - this will make cutting them easier and neater.
- Unwrap the sponges and, if they have domed in the centre, trim to flatten. Cut a 12cm-diameter circle out of the centre of each sponge using a biscuit cutter or paper template. Then cut a 6cm-diameter circle from the centre of your 12cm sponge. From each sponge, you should end up with a 6cm circle, a 12cm ring and an 18cm ring. Swap the middle rings of the chocolate sponges with the middle rings from the raspberry-rose sponges, and fit the cut pieces back together. Handle the sponges very gently to avoid cracking the edges too much.
- Heat the jam to melt, then sieve to remove the seeds. Generously brush some over one of the sponges and top with an alternating sponge. Repeat to stack up all the layers. Sit the cake on a serving plate or cake stand.
- Break the chocolate into a heatproof bowl with the cream and butter. Set over a pan of barely simmering water so the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water, and very gently melt together. Cool until slightly thickened and more spreadable, then spread all over the cake to finish. Don't return to the fridge - this cake keeps for two days at room temperature - and tastes better the day after assembling.

- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4. Butter a 21 x 15cm Battenberg tin. You can use an ordinary 20 x 20cm square cake tin: line it with a strip of parchment folded up across the middle to separate the two cakes.
- Beat the butter with sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs one by one, then stir together the flour, salt and baking powder and add it in one go. Beat until combined.
- Transfer half of the mix (345g) to a clean bowl. Stir the rose water and pink colouring into this portion and the lime zest into the other. Spoon the mixes into the prepared tin and bake for 20-25 minutes until a skewer inserted into the cakes comes out clean. Take out of the oven and cool in the tin.
- Prepare the marzipan while the sponges are cooling: in the food processor whiz the hazelnuts into powder. Add the almonds, icing sugar and pulse to mix. Add the egg yolks and lemon and pulse until the marzipan comes together. Turn out onto a work surface and knead until it’s soft and pliable; add a little more lemon juice if it’s still crumbly.

- Heat the oven to 180C/375F/gas mark 4. Butter and line two 400g loaf tins (I used two 8x4in loaf tins to make a four section cake).
- Cream together the butter and sugar then whisk in the flour and eggs, divide the mixture in half and mix the Chambord and red food colouring into one half, and 35g (4tbsp) of the cocoa and the milk into the other. Spoon the chocolate mix into one tin and the raspberry into the other, level the surface and bake for 25-35 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Leave the cakes to cool in the tins for about 10 minutes then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Knead the remaining cocoa powder into the marzipan until it is well combined then roll it out into a rough rectangle, wide enough to wrap around the cakes when stacked.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Get out two loaf pans and line the loaf pans with parchment to have flaps hanging over the sides, then generously spray the pans with Nonstick Cooking Spray (to taste).
- Next, whisk the All-Purpose Flour (1 1/2 cup), Almond Flour (1/4 cup), Baking Soda (1/2 teaspoon), Baking Powder (1/2 teaspoon), and Salt (1 pinch) together in a bowl to aerate the dry ingredients.
- Then, set up a stand mixer with a paddle attachment and beat the Butter (1 cup) and Granulated Sugar (1 cup) together in its bowl. Add the Egg (4) one at a time, pushing down the sides as you add them in. Finally, add 1/3 of the dry ingredients followed by the Milk (1/4 cup). Repeat this again, and then end with the final 1/3 of the dry ingredients.
- Divide the batter evenly into two bowls. Use a scale to be really precise ideally. Stir the Rose Water (1/2 teaspoon) and Pink Gel Food Coloring (1/4 teaspoon) into one of the bowls, and the Lemon (1) zest and juice into the other bowl. Now you have two separate, gorgeously flavored batter.
