If there’s anything that says New Year, it’s these little cakes! Filled with gold and all the good New Year flavors: champagne, strawberries and, not least, marzipan wreath cake!

The cakes themselves are like little festive fireworks and are perfect for the New Year’s Eve table if you are looking for a festive dessert.

The little chocolate spires decorate the top of the cakes perfectly and give them that extra touch.
