          Preparation: 
          Boil
          the sugar for a few minutes until it forms a slightly thick, unbroken
          string when dripped from a spoon. As soon as this occurs, add the
          Malabar gourd preserve and the margarine. Stir well and take off the
          stove. 
          Then add the almonds, already mixed with the breadcrumbs, together
          with the walnuts, figs and pumpkin and after that the egg yolks,
          lightly beaten. 
          Bake the cake in a medium oven in a tin lined with buttered,
          grease-proof paper. Bake slowly.
