How to make this recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 170°C/Fan150°C, 340°F, Gas 3.

Step 2

Greased and line 18cm/7” deep round cake tin.

Step 3

Cream together the butter, Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar and Lyle’s Golden Syrup until pale fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs beating well after each addition.

Step 4

Sift together the flours and fold into the mixture then fold in the caraway seeds, candied lemon peel, orange zest and juice.

Step 5

Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin, level and make a slight dip in the middle. Bake in a preheated oven for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until firm to touch. Turn out on a wire rack to cool.

TOP TIP

If you want to go the extra mile, whip up some icing and our it on the cake so it drips down the sides a little. You can even finish the cake with a little lemon or orange zest I the centre for a tangy twist!
