Celebrate Easter with this yummy cake!
Preheat the oven to 200°C, Fan oven 180°C, Gas Mark 6. Grease a 30x23cm Swiss roll tin with butter. Line with non-stick baking paper.
Melt the remaining butter, then set it aside to cool. Sift the flour, salt and cocoa powder together. Break the eggs into a separate large mixing bowl and whisk in the sugar using a hand-held electric mixer at the highest setting until very light and mousse-like. This will take 4-5 minutes to reach the right volume.
Fold in the flour mixture gently, using a large metal spoon. Next, fold in the cooled melted butter. Tip the mixture into the prepared tin and level the surface. (Do this quickly). Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the top springs back when touched lightly.
Put a large sheet of non-stick baking paper onto a work surface and turn the cooked cake onto it, while hot, so that it is upside down. Carefully peel off the lining paper. Roll up the cake from the short end with the baking paper (so that the paper is inside). Cool completely.
For the icing, whisk the butter and icing sugar together until light and creamy. Halve the mixture and whisk the cocoa powder into one half and the vanilla extract into the rest. Unroll the cake, spread with the vanilla icing and roll up carefully. Place on a serving plate and cover with the chocolate icing.
Spread the melted dark and white chocolate evenly over two chopping boards. Chill, then make chocolate curls with a large knife, pushing the knife away from you at an angle. Arrange on the cake with the chocolate eggs and sprinkle a little cocoa powder on top.

We knew it was going to be a showstopper, but this might be bordering on an eye-popper!
A picture-perfect cake tower, this delicate and airy sponge is bursting with summer`s juiciest berries and scattered with crystallized rose petals...
In other words, it`s a big shindig-only bake, so don`t go hiding it away! It deserves to be seen! Recipe in bio.
Wow @georgiahearn__ knows what people like... chocolate and pudding!

Yes it`s here, National Tea Day and the ideal time to share one of our favourite shortbread recipes using fragrant Earl Grey tea.
Here`s how to make Earl Grey & Lemon Shortbread:
Prep Time – 30 mins (4 hours to chill)
Yield – 12 – 16 (dependant on the size of your cutters)
Ingredients
Biscuits
50g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
2 tbsp of Earl Grey Tea
220g plain flour
Pinch of salt
Icing
A squeeze of lemon
100g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar
Instructions
Combine your tea leaves and butter, leaving overnight preferably to infuse. You can cover in a bowl and leave to the side as this mix shouldn’t be chilled.
Add your butter mix to a bowl your sugar and combine, then add the flour salt until a dough forms
Roll out your dough mix until even – about half an inch thick and cut with your biscuit cutter.
Pop onto a baking sheet and into a preheated oven at 180°C/ 160°C fan/ gas mark 4/ 350°F and bake for 15 mins. Keep and eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Whilst they cool make your icing and then drizzle generously once the biscuits are completely cold.

Just squeeze a bit of lemon juice in your standard whole or semi-skimmed if you`re ever in need.
