  3. It is absolutely necessary that the butter and eggs are at room temperature. Don't heat butter to soften.
  4. Break up almond paste by placing it into a food processor, or using an electric mini chopster. Process until it is grainy like the texture of small course grains. Set aside.
  5. In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar together until fluffy for 3 minutes.
  6. Add orange liquor, orange zest (HINT: sprinkle the zest across, do not add in one lump) and almond paste. Beat until perfectly blended for 3 minutes.
  7. One by one add in eggs incorporating each separately until each egg is completely blended. Then beat for 3 minutes until mixture is very smooth and fluffy. HINT: break eggs into small glass bowl to make sure there are no egg shell fragments.
