To add the filling, carefully ease the sponge from the baking paper, brush with Amaretto or orange juice. Carefully mix together the cream, vanilla sugar, sugar and almonds, spread evenly over the sponge, roll up the sponge, cover and allow to cool in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours. Before serving cut into slices and decorate with the marzipan carrots.
