We're over halfway through the VI Bake-Off! This week's bake combines a delicious soft sponge cake with the sweet pinch of lemon.
A Bitter-Sweet Treat
The fifth bake in the VI Bake-Off is a delicious Crunchy Lemon Drizzle cake, courtesy of James, our newest Software Developer. James’ Lemon Drizzle cake is a delicious classic sponge with a twist, instead of using icing on top of the cake, the recipe called for a combination of lemon juice and granulated sugar in order to create a bitter-sweet crunchy topping. James said that he also used some of his own ‘baking secrets’ in order to make the sponge so light.
Up for the Challenge
