Never throw away overripe bananas: they may be dark and spotty and not look very appetising but do you know that this is when they are at their most nutritious? How about making the most of all that goodness and deep banana flavour by turning these outcasts into a delicious cake? From reject to the pick of the bunch.
How can something this simple look so special? A basic vanilla cake staple, which every baker must have in their locker, is turned into a mystery surprise with a little creative colouring. Mystery or played straight, this bake is super moist and fluffy and lends itself to any sort of decoration. Eat it on its own, or ice it, or cover it with buttercream, jam, chocolate, lemon - the only limit is your imagination with this most versatile sponge.
Chiffon cakes are one of my absolute favourites. They are light and delicate and just make you want to take a huge bite! This Pandan chiffon cake uses the famous Asian flavouring to give a vibrant green colour and an aromatic but delicate taste. I really love this cake!
