Cook's Notes:
If you like, you can make little layer cakes with your favorite jam as the filling. You can also add flavor by brushing the cake with a simple syrup before glazing. A thin layer of marzipan on top will make the petits fours flat for glazing, too. Try this lavender-flavored simple syrup.
