Since I am fairly new on this baking journey I was thrilled when Stork asked me to try and bake a version of their Zesty Lemon Celebration cake with their new Stork with Butter and knowing Ollie loved his lemon cakes I jumped at the chance!
So firstly what is the new Stork with Butter? … It is designed for baking due to its unique qualities:
* A perfect blend of Stork and butter makes cakes light and fluffy with a delicious buttery taste while also delivering rich, creamy and smooth icing
* A unique combination of oils and butter makes it easier to mix with other ingredients
* It’s ready to use straight from the fridge
* Its composition results in a more even and increased rise of your bakes
* It creates more volume as you mix, producing a lighter, fluffier texture
So how did I get on baking my first ever Lemon Cake?
Well, I have to say this recipe was super simple and in fact it was far easier than I had imagined and to top it off Ollie claimed it was the nicest cake he had eaten!
The cake itself was really really fluffy and crumbly but held together while cutting which made it a little easier and no wastage!
I added a little more lemon juice into the sponge and into the icing than the original Stork recipe and I think it only added to the flavour.
Thank you Stork for challenging me once again …
