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

Heat the oven to 180C or 160C fan forced, gas 4. 

In a large bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, mixed spice and salt. In another bowl, combine the olive oil, Chelsea White Sugar, eggs, vanilla essence and grated courgette. Mix the dry and wet mixture until just combined, and then fold in the toasted hazelnuts.

Line a 24cm cake tin with grease proof paper, then pour in your mixture. Bake for about 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 10 minutes, and then turn out onto a wire rack and leave to cool.

Icing
Place the chocolate in a bowl and bring cream to the boil in a saucepan. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and stir until completely smooth and melted. Leave the icing to cool slightly and thicken, then spread it over the cake so it's covered and the icing starts to drip down the sides. Serve with a cup of tea or enjoy as a pudding with a spoonful of something creamy.
