Boil honey with sugar and butter. Allow to cool slightly, then add the egg and spices. Sift flour with baking powder and quickly knead into a smooth dough. Roll out with a little flour to about 5 mm thick and cut out hearts. Make a small indentation in the center with a wooden spoon. Mix together the marzipan and quince jam and place a small ball in the indentation. Bake the hearts on baking paper at 170°C for about 10 minutes. Once cooled, dip the hearts completely in the icing and let them drain onto a wire rack. Place on greaseproof paper before removing the icing. Use a fork or chocolate-making knife to dip them in or remove them from the icing.
