A lovely combination using both oranges and lemons instead of the traditional single lemon makes this a delicious tasting cake, perfect for zingy cake loving people like me. It’s lovely to have with your cuppa but equally, can be dressed up as a gift to take for a friend. At the end of the video, I have some decoration suggestions you might like to try.

The finishing touch is a sharp, sweet & tasty syrup and instead of adding it in the traditional way of heating first, this is simply mixed and drizzled over the cake, while it’s still warm, to give it a slight crunch once it fully cools.
With this cake, it’s not particularly difficult but it does take time. If you want, you can make it over two days. The issue is that each cake takes 65 – 75 mins to bake and can’t be made at the same time so plan ahead for this but otherwise, it’s so simple that it’s definitely worth trying to impress your loved ones.
