Denis is not usually a fan of the traditional Danish Christmas dessert, too much cream, too heavy. So he lifted its lovely flavours into a cake instead: rice pudding and roasted almonds through the filling, a marzipan layer on the base and a cherry sauce on top. The result, he says, is simply perfect.
