Product Information

Enjoy this fabulous honey cake made with mixed spice and ginger and a lovely honey butter drizzle topping. It's ideal for afternoon tea or elevenses For teaspoon (tsp) and tablespoon (tbsp) measurements, please use measuring spoons* and not the type of spoons you eat with. Again this will ensure accuracy and provide the best results. It's really important to use good quality vanilla extract for the perfect natural vanilla flavour. Avoid using essence as it's a sythentic flavour and personally I don't think it tastes as good. Finally, use an assortment of star cutters (or other Christmas shapes!) to cut out stars from the remaining marzipan. Lightly brush the underside of the marzipan stars with water and arrange on top of the cake. The batter was left on the kitchen counter for too long before baking the cake. As soon as the batter is ready and in the tin, it should be placed into a pre-heated oven straight away.

Yes, you can make this cake by hand with a manual whisk or wooden/silicone spoon. However, you may find that the cake doesn't rise as well.

Pre-heat your oven to 230°C/210°C fan and place an empty roasting tray on the lowest shelf/base of the ovento pre-heat. While I would recommend using fresh lemons in this recipe for the best flavour, you can use lemon extract if it's all you have and you're craving lemon cake! A good quality lemon extract can create wonderful lemon flavour in bakes. You won't be able to make the lemon drizzle part of this recipe, but you still make the cake and the lemon icing. Mix 4 tsp lemon extract into the cake, and 1 tsp lemon extract into the icing (you will also need a little water too for the right consistency of icing). How to make Lemon Drizzle Loaf Cake

Once iced, a homemade Christmas cake will only last for a few weeks – a month at most. But for optimal flavour, I recommend eating within 2 weeks. Whatever you use, make sure you stir the fruit in by hand. It only takes a minute but then you won't chop it up.
