If I knew you were coming I would have baked a cake …..

April 2, 2018 by admin

so I did … and here is my Easter Cake !

This is not going on my recipe page as it is not one of my own originals but from Jemima Jones and Lucy Carr- Ellison, who, amongst other publications, write a page in the ES magazine. So I followed their recipe for White Chicolate, Almond and Raspberry Fudge cake and did my own egg and raspberry decoration.

Its an easy flourless cake but their article/ recipe suggested a 30-40 minute bake, whereas mine took over an hour ! Don’t know why but after it cooled down the taste was just great – even my wife is eating it and she does not do cakes ! She likes the nuttiness of the almonds and the hidden fresh raspberries that are baked inside the cake. I can provide the recipe if anyone interested but as I have said it is stolen from the eager bakers named above.

Hope you all enjoying the Easter break !
