And I think you strangely get one of your five a day...after two slices!

Album for today:


Mark Ronson Here Comes The Fuzz 2003




yum looking at the above pictures makes me want to run down stairs and cut another slice.


160°C
250g butter
300g golden caster sugar
3 medium eggs

Whisk the above

250g wholemeal plain flour
1tsp bicarbonate soda
1tsp cream of tartar

whisk this in

1 ripe mango peeled and chopped finely
1 tbsp freshly squeezed orange
zest of half an orange

whisk these in for 10 seconds, the mango can still be in chunky.

Mark Ronson if you ever read this you very talented.

Anyway pour in greased baking tin.

Bake for one hour, don't change the temperature.

Once it's done melt 100g G&B maya gold chocolate and stir into 100ml sour cream and 1 tbsp icing sugar.

Pour over the cake and put some dried mango and oranges on top.

I'm very proud of this cake, baking is a science and once you know what works you don't need to look in a recipe book or use google.

Have a great evening, I definately will.
