Chocolate Orange Traybake

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease and line a rectangular baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar until light and fluffy.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. If the mixture starts to curdle, add a tablespoon of flour and continue mixing.

Step 4

Sift the self-raising flour into the bowl and fold it gently into the mixture. Add the orange zest and orange juice, and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Divide the mixture into two equal parts. Leave one part plain, and sift the cocoa powder into the other part. Mix until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated.

Step 6

Spoon alternate dollops of the plain and chocolate batters into the prepared baking tray, creating a marbled effect.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped dark, milk, and white chocolates evenly over the top of the cake mixture.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

While the tray bake is baking, prepare the chocolate orange drizzle. Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Stir in the orange zest.

Step 10

Once the tray bake is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the tray for a few minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Once the tray bake is completely cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate orange mixture over the top using a spoon or a piping bag.

Step 12

Finally, sprinkle the remaining orange zest over add a segment of chocolate orange evenly spaced (we find 12 evenly space where you will slice works best). Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy your delicious Chocolate Orange Tray Bake!

Beautiful, quick desserts that look great without any baking required... (Recipe links in bio.)
Forget the cherry, there's much better things you can pop on top of a cake these days!

Things like these personalised fondant cupcake decorations - an ideal way to turn your baking gifts up a notch.

Just follow the steps from @elliebakess to make your own...

Step 1: Dust your surface in icing sugar, I used @tateandlylesugars as this icing sugar
ensures your fondant doesn’t stick to the surface or your hands! (It’s also great for use
in everyday baking such as in buttercream or glace icing)
Step 2: Take your fondant icing and add a few drops of food colouring. Mix this
together with your hands until you have achieved your desired colour - I like to mix
until I get a marble effect.
Step 3: Take an outbosser stamp of your choice and firmly press this onto the fondant
icing. A rolling pin helps with this too.
Step 4: Carefully peel the fondant icing away from the stamp and use a cookie cutter
to cut it out into your desired shape - circles always work well for cupcake toppers.
Step 5: Paint the raised text in any colour (You can use edible paint for this or mix
lustre dust and alcohol to create your own) Enjoy!

Passionate preservers where are you!?

As well as marmalades and jams, our Pure Cane Preserving Sugar is a gateway to delicious jars of peaches, plums, gooseberries and all-sorts!

What would you make with this bag of Tate & Lyle Pure Cane Preserving Sugar?
Never let buttercream get the best of you... 

Once you know the basics, this classic filling and decoration is easy to master, as proved by the brilliant @elliebakess!

500g Tate & Lyle Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
1tsp Vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Splash of milk (if needed)

 Mix the butter on medium speed for 5-10 minutes! (This is the most important part) the butter should go from pale yellow in colour to pale white
Add in your icing sugar a few tablespoons at a time. Add this gradually until all is combined.
Add in your vanilla extract and pinch of salt
If your buttercream is too stiff add in a splash of milk (only a little as you will not need much!)

TOP TIPS:
 Make sure your butter is softened! You can do this in 10 second bursts in the microwave
Add splashes of milk if it’s too stiff
We had to spoil things for you. But it isn't the carrots that make it taste so good...

For stronger notes of caramel and a softer, sticky texture, you can always count on our Light Muscovado. 

Carrot Cake? It's in the bag!

We could have just popped some strawberries and cream in a bowl for Wimbledon... but that would have been too easy! 

So instead, we thought we'd introduce you all to Syllabub - an old favourite from the 16th century! Made by curdling sweet cream or milk with an acid such as wine or cider, it's like a sweet, sophisticated trifle.

Especially if you make it with Pimms like we have... 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

200 g strawberries 

100 ml Pimms

1 lemon

1 orange

For the Syllabub:

300 ml double cream

4 tbsps Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Cane Icing Sugar

Method:

1. Chop your strawberries into quarters and put into a large bowl, add the Pimms and juice of the lemon and orange to the bowl. Cover and chill preferably overnight at a minimum.
2 Take your strawberries and Pimms out of the fridge and spoon into trifle glasses.
3. Whisk your double and cream and icing sugar until it holds its shape but is still spoonable.
4. Top your trifle glasses with the cream mixture and pop some strawberries on top to garnish if you fancy. Best enjoyed on a summer afternoon with the match on the tv!
