Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/Fan160°C/Gas Mark 4 .

Step 2

Grease a 25.5cm (10”) ring mould or Bundt tin and dust with a little flour.

Step 3

Beat the butter, Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar, Lyle’s Golden Syrup, the eggs, vanilla extract, flour and baking powder until evenly mixed. Spoon half of the mixture into another bowl, adding the milk.

Step 4

Mix the coffee and cocoa powder until smooth then fold into the other bowl of the cake mixture.

Step 5

Place alternate spoonfuls of the cake mixtures into the prepared cake tin. With a knife, gently swirl together to give a marbled effect, then place in the oven and cook for 35-40 minutes or until firm to touch and when a skewer is inserted it comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin slightly before turning out, then leave to cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 6

To make the icing, put the chocolate into a bowl with the Lyle’s Golden Syrup and cream set over a pan of simmering water, stir occasionally and when melted and smooth, remove from the heat. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Whisk the icing with a balloon whisk until it begins to hold its shape. If it becomes too stiff add a tablespoon of hot water.

Step 7

Pour over the cake and leave to set.

TOP TIP

For extra décor, you could drizzle a little whit chocolate on top of the plain; or even do some chocolate work if you're really fancy…

These cute Easter cupcakes are great for baking with little ones over the holidays… or whipping up just for you on a slow Sunday afternoon.

We’ve used light muscovado sugar to make the sponge extra moist and fudgy – perfect with buttery chocolate icing and a handful of mini eggs.

Key initiatives funded by our Fairtrade Premium have included a programme focused on female empowerment by The Progressive Sugarcane Producers Association. This pilot project engaged women across four communities in Belize, providing them with essential skills in financial literacy, economic opportunities, and hands-on training. 

These women, including Elsa Perez, learned to manage their sugarcane revenues, explore small business entrepreneurship, and diversify their income sources.

Perfect for cosying up on chilly days, our creamy caramel latte is really easy to make, with a splash of our Barista Collection caramel syrup. Here’s how…

120ml Semi-skimmed milk
100ml Freshly brewed coffee
15ml Tate & Lyle caramel coffee syrup
5ml Tate & Lyle demerara sugar (optional)

Heat the milk and syrup in a small pan till frothy.
Turn down the heat, stirring in the coffee (and sugar if you like).
Pour and enjoy.

☕️ Our syrups are all vegan, so if you switch up your milk, your latte can be too.

7.5ml Hazelnut liqueur
7.5ml Tate & Lyle hazelnut syrup
