My love for Collies, Cakes, Cooking, Eating Out & Days Out.
A few months ago I found a recipe for a Maple Syrup Cake which turned out to be a disaster. The quantities, nor the method seemed correct but I ploughed ahead and baked a dreadful dry and sunken cake. So after a bit of experimentation I now have a recipe I have created for a delicious Maple Syrup, Orange & Pecan Cake with an orange buttercream filling. Even better, you can always swap the Pecans for Walnuts and it will be just as tasty!
As it is my birthday this week my hubby said he would bake me a cake instead
of me baking one. Not going to argue with that! After a bit of mooching through some recipes we found the perfect one. From the book Scandinavian Baking by Trine Hahnemann, Honey Cake with Orange Buttercream. This is a book we’ve had a while but not yet tried a recipe from but this one has a lot of my favourite flavours in it. So whilst hubby baked I was snapping photos so I can share this bake and recipe with you. Continue reading “Honey Cake with Orange Buttercream”
When I was deciding what to bake this week a little voice from the neighbouring room asked if requests could be made. I stuck my head round my husband’s office door and he said “something orangey”. So here we are a moist yet light Orange & Lemon Layer Cake.
