The best poppy seed cake on a shortcrust base, topped with icing and candied orange peel. It appeared on my Christmas table, and I will happily return to this recipe in the future. Perfectly moist, rich and completely trouble-free to bake. Highly recommended.
A moist rhubarb and orange cake soaked with a fragrant fruit syrup. The well-known “Rhubarb Triangle” in Yorkshire is famous for its pink forced rhubarb, available from January to April. It’s the last chance to enjoy it before outdoor-grown rhubarb takes over.
This apple poppy seed cake – often referred to as Japanese poppy seed cake – is wonderfully moist and full of flavour, just the way we like it. It’s made almost entirely from rich poppy seed mixture, though it can also be baked on a thin shortcrust base if you prefer.
