carrot and cardamom cake


A really luxurious carrot cake with a hint of aromatic cardamon. Best eaten on the day it is made due to being low in fat so reducing its keeping properties.





September 28, 2004


Serves 6


2 carrots , finely grated


juice and rind 1 small orange


black seeds from 8 cardamon pods, ground in a pestle and mortar


100ml milk


2 large eggs


25g granular Canderel


100ml light olive oil or sunflower oil


350g self raising flour


50g raisins, chopped








FOR THE TOPPING


250g low fat cream cheese


1/2 tsp vanilla essence


1tbsp granular Canderel








FOR THE ORANGE SYRUP


1 large orange


4tbsp granular Canderel





Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 5. Grease and line a 23cm square cake tin. Combine the carrots, orange juice, zest , ground cardamom seeds and milk in a small bowl and set aside. With electric beaters whip the eggs and granular Canderel until thick and creamy. Gradually add the oil, beating well. Fold the flour into the mixture alternating with along with the raisins and carrot mixture. Spoon into the cake tin and bake for 40 - 45 minutes until a skewer inserted in the cake comes out clean. When cooked transfer the cake to a wire rack and leave to cool.





For the orange syrup, peel the skin from the orange and cut into fine strips. Place in a small saucepan with the juice from the orange and the Canderel. Gently bring to a simmer and cook the orange strips for about 5 minutes until softened and the orange juice has reduced slightly and is syrupy.





For the topping beat together the cream cheese with the vanilla essence and the granular Canderel. Spread over the top of the cake and serve cut into squares with a drizzle of orange syrup.My son has braces ,I want to bake a cake using canderel ,anyone have recipes that i can use.?
all the info I just read on the Canderel website says to use it measure for measure in anything you are cooking.





So pick a cake recipe your son likes and change the sugar to Canderel.





To make a good icing make sugar syrup using the Canderel to soft ball stage and beat into egg white like you were making Divinity. Spread on cake.
