    Put red wine (or currant juice), cinnamon stick, star anise, cloves and orange peel in a pot and bring to the boil. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Then let it cool down. Pour punch through a sieve. Stir butter, sugar, vanilla bean, citro bean and cinnamon until light creamy. Add the eggs one after the other, stirring each egg for at least 2 minutes. Keep stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Mix flour, pudding powder and baking powder. Stir briefly with 100 ml punch into the dough. Spread the dough on a baking tray covered with baking paper. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C on medium rack/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for about 25 minutes. After baking, prick the cake several times and immediately soak it with 75 ml punch. Let it cool down on a cake rack. Then carefully cut out moons (7 cm long) from the dough. Mix icing sugar with 6-7 tablespoons of punch. Warm up the redcurrant jelly while stirring, fill into a freezer bag. Cut off a small corner. Cover moons with punch and decorate them with the jelly in strips
