The Albanian panaret.
Although the Easter Vigil is not universal in the Anglican Communion, its use has become far more common in recent decades. Formerly it was only common in parishes in the Anglo-Catholic tradition.
Simnel cake is a fruit cake, similar to a Christmas cake, covered in marzipan eaten at Easter in England. On the top of the cake around the edge are eleven marzipan balls to represent the true apostles of Jesus; Judas is omitted.
The cake is made from rich ingredients: white flour, fragrant spices, dried fruits and peel.
