Method

1. Line the AGA half size roasting tin or a 34.5cm x 23cm oblong tin with a piece of Bake-O-Glide. Place all the cake ingredients into a large basin and beat well with a wooden spoon until mixed together. Put into the prepared tin.

2. Slide the tin onto the middle set of runners in the Baking Oven and cook for about 35-40 minutes until golden brown.

3. Meanwhile make the topping syrup by mixing the lemon juice and caster sugar together, heat gently together until the sugar has dissolved. Pour over the cake when it comes out of the oven. Cool and remove the Bake-O-Glide, drizzle with glace icing, made by mixing the juice of half a lemon with icing sugar and decorate with crystallised violets. Allow the icing to set then cut into slices.

Conventional cooking
