Ingredients

For the syrup

  • 60 ml fruit cordial ( or other fruity liqueur (optional))
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 50 g Sugar
  • 3 Cardamom Pods (optional)

For the Cake

  • 120 g butter ( – or baking margarine)
  • 75 g granulated sugar (I use unrefined golden)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder (heaped)
  • 120 g plain flour
  • 50 g white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F / GM4
  • Line a 1lb loaf tin with baking parchment.
  • Put all the ingredients for the syrup into a small pan and simmer until reduced by half.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract, then the eggs, one at a time. Stir in half the reduced syrup and the rose water. Fold in the baking powder, flour and chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and bake for about 30 mins until the cake is firm to the touch and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  • When still warm prick the top of the cake all over with a fork, and drizzle the remaining syrup over.
  • Dust with icing sugar to serve.
  • Enjoy! The cake should keep in a tin for a good 5 days.

    Now you know that was all looking pretty good to me, you shouldn’t have pointed out all the things that bothered you. I was thinking the cake looked good and what a pretty plate.

    This challenge is vexing me somewhat. I managed to get a bottle of rosehip cordial yesterday, so now I need to work out what to make. Your loaf cake looks very good.

      Thank you. Amazingly it is not stale after being made 5 days ago. Even more amazingly there is still some left after 5 days.

    I really should get back into the blogging events too. Using fruit cordial for the syrup is a great idea – will have to try that one. I have some Cherry and Vanilla Bottlegreen Cordial in my cupboard…..

    Well it’s a pretty plate and a pretty tablecloth. As for the cake, it sounds divine. What a great idea to pour a rose flavour syrup over the cake. Raspberry and rose is such a delicious combination – I want some of that syrup for my very own!!!!!! Thanks for participating in the challenge.

    I can almost smell the scented rose from here, it’s heavenly! And the white chocolate makes it one perfect cake!
