If you’re a baker, add this to your recipe list. This cake is spongey, light and a citrusy delight with marmalade and grapefruit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
    \r\n
  • 3 Florida Grapefruit<\/li>\r\n
  • 250g butter<\/li>\r\n
  • 250g caster sugar<\/li>\r\n
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract<\/li>\r\n
  • 4 free range eggs<\/li>\r\n
  • 250g self-raising flour<\/li>\r\n
  • 4 tbsp grapefruit marmalade<\/li>\r\n
  • 200g icing sugar<\/li>\r\n
  • 100g softened butter<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    Preparation<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    1. Place the butter and sugar into a large mixing bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    2. Add the vanilla extract and all the eggs one at a time. It\u2019s important to fully mix each egg in before adding the next one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    3. Zest the Florida Grapefruit fully into the cake mixture before sieving the flour into the bowl.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    4. Using a metal spoon, fold the ingredients together to make a cake batter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    5. Divide the mixture equally into 2 x 20cm sandwich cake tins and bake in a pre-heated oven 170c for 20-25 minutes or until fully baked and golden.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    6. When the cakes are ready, remove from the oven and leave to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    7. To make the marmalade glaze, heat the marmalade in a pan with the freshly squeezed Florida Grapefruit juice to create a tasty glaze.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    8. Beat together remaining butter and icing sugar to make a butter icing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    9. To ice the cake, place the butter icing on the bottom layer, then drizzle with the marmalade syrup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

    10. Top with the remaining cake and dust with a little extra icing sugar. Use a blow torch to caramelise the top for a little crunch.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
