This cake worked well for us, and my daughter ate most of it – a rare event, because she isn’t really into cakes.<\/p>\n
Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n 3 oz runny honey For icing: 6 oz icing sugar (confectioners sugar) and 1 tblsp lemon juice<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 170C.<\/p>\n Method<\/strong><\/p>\n Sift the flour, baking powder and spices into a large bowl and add the sugar and zest. Rub the butter in. <\/p>\n Warm the honey slightly, and beat it with the egg. Mix into the flour mixture.<\/p>\n Mix the bicarb with 3 tblsps of water until dissolved, then beat into the flour mixture.<\/p>\n Stir in the chopped ginger and tip the mix into a greased or lined 8″ round tin.<\/p>\n Cook for about 50 minutes. Cool it in the tin for about 10 minutes then turn it onto a cooling rack until cold.<\/p>\n Then sift the icing sugar into a bowl, add the lemon juice and about 2 tblsps of water to get a thin icing – pour it over the cake. Do put a plate under the cake because this is very runny icing!<\/p>\n If you like, you could put more chopped stem ginger on the top to decorate it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This cake worked well for us, and my daughter ate most of it – a rare event, because she isn’t really into cakes.
