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
Preheat oven to 160°C. Grease a large 25 cm spring form tin and line with baking paper.
Chop the whole almonds in a food processor or with a knife until they resemble coarse breadcrumbs. Roughly chop the chocolate, either with a knife or in a food processor, and reserve a few tablespoons to garnish.
Beat egg whites until really stiff. Add the Chelsea Caster Sugar slowly, a teaspoon at a time, until the mixture is thick and glossy. Fold through the chopped almonds, chocolate and dates. Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Cool in the tin, before placing on a serving plate.
Whip cream and spread generously over the top. Sprinkle with the reserved chocolate and sliced almonds. Keep chilled until serving time.
