Light in Flavour

When you want a delicate sweetness in your baking, using White Sugar or Caster Sugar can provide a subtle sweetness that enhances the other flavours without overpowering them.

Fruity

Using fruit can add a natural, fruity sweetness to baking, creating a refreshing, light flavour or adding sweet tartness. White Sugar or Caster Sugar in baking, allows the flavour of the fruit to shine and Jam Setting Sugar preserves the taste of fruit in vibrant jams.

Nutty

Coconut Sugar bring a subtle nuttiness to baked goods, elevating the taste with a mild, natural sweetness and pairs beautifully with tropical flavours.

Spiced

Using sugars with spices like cinnamon, ginger, licorice or chai can lend a warm, aromatic sweetness to baking.

Caramel

Utilising brown sugars or incorporating caramelised sugar syrups creates a richer, deeper flavor profile, adding a hint of caramel or toffee-like taste.

Chocolate

Chocolate adds a decadent richness to baked goods with its deep cocoa flavour, making it perfect for indulgent treats. Try adding a deep flavoured Brown Sugar to the mix for enhanced chocolate flavour.

Method
Melt chocolate and set aside.  Drain beetroot and put juice in a bowl. Finely chop the beetroot and put it in with the juice.
Beat butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla until fluffy (5mins - scrape sides!). Reduce speed and add chocolate.
Sift together flour and baking powder. Add to mixture alternately with buttermilk. Mix until incorporated.
Add beets and juice. Mix until blended (you will still see the beets)
Divide batter into two pans - bake at 180°C for approx. an hour (or until cooked).
Icing : Heat cream and chocolate until chocolate is completely melted. Mix well and put into fridge. Stir every 10 minutes until thick (will actually set if you forget it but then you just make truffles!)
Takes about an hour to set.
