fruit to decorate the cake. Chop the remainder coarsely.

Add the cinnamon to the sweetened ricotta and beat until smooth
and creamy. Put aside a few tbsp. of the mixture for decoration.
Combine the remainder with the chopped fruit and chocolate.

Cut the sponge cake in half horizontally. Put one layer on the
bottom of the cake pan, cut side up, and sprinkle it with half
of the Maraschino. Spread with the remaining cheese mixture. Fit
the ring of the cake pan in position and chill the cake for
several hours.

When ready to serve, remove the cake from the pan and place it
on a large, flat serving dish. Coat the top and sides with the
reserved cheese and decorate with the reserved candied fruit.

You may also decorate the cake with whipped cream, and the
candied fruits may be supplemented with chopped nuts.
