Marble Cake with liquorice a la Klidmoster

I have found this recipe on marble cake with liquorice on the food blog by Klidmoster, and it was for sure the right choice for me to bake in connection with my afternoon tea with focus on liquorice. As we had quiet a large tea menu to taste, I was left with a large part of this cake. So I took the rest of this cake with me to work, so my work colleagues could finish it of. Only my Danish turned up, as my foreign work colleague still have to adjust to the Danish taste preference of liquorice !!!
