- Ground clove - 4 pieces
- Gelatin - 0.2 oz

Step by Step guide
Step 1
Cut the orange peel into thin strips, avoiding the white pith. Soak it in cold water and leave it overnight. The next day, drain the water, chop the peel in a grinder, add a glass of water, and simmer on low heat for 30 minutes.
Step 2
While the peels are cooking, peel the orange, remove the transparent membranes from the segments, and blend the pulp. Pour the juice into the pot with the peels and add a glass of sugar. Add the cloves and simmer on low heat for another 20 minutes.
Step 3
Soak half a tablespoon of gelatin in two to three tablespoons of water. After about 10 minutes, melt it over low heat and mix it with the jam. For the truffle mixture, melt 100 g of chocolate in a water bath and mix it with the cream.
Step 4
For the marzipan, pour boiling water over the almonds and let them sit for two to three minutes. Remove the outer skin. Set aside 10 nuts, grind the rest in a grinder, and add one tablespoon of cognac and cream at a time. Sift the powdered sugar and knead the almond dough.
Step 5
Chop the reserved nuts and toast them in a pan until light golden. On a sheet of parchment paper lightly dusted with powdered sugar, roll out the marzipan. Shape it into a rectangle about half a centimeter thick. Evenly sprinkle with the nuts.
Step 6
You can pour the jelly when it has set enough but is still runny. The layer of jelly should also be half a centimeter thick.
Step 7
Place the truffle on top. If it has hardened, slightly melt it in a water bath and mix well. The truffle layer should also be half a centimeter thick. Place the three-layer structure in the refrigerator to fully set and cool for about 10 minutes.
Step 8
Pour very hot water (boiling water is fine) into a tall container and prepare a paper towel.
Step 9
Before each cut, dip the knife in hot water to warm the metal, dry it with the towel, and carefully cut the candy preparation.
Step 10
Melt 100 g of chocolate in a water bath and coat the candies with it.
