Process
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, the spices and the sugar. Add the milk and egg and mix until a very thick batter forms.
Step 2
Put the golden syrup in a small bowl and gently heat in the microwave for about 20 sec. The point here is to make the syrup runnier, but not to make it hot. Add the syrup and olive oil to the batter and mix until a thin batter forms. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.
Step 3
Bake the cake for 45 min – 1 hr hour at 165°C until it’s cooked – a skewer inserted into the cake should come out clean. Remove from oven and leave in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack until completely cool (that will take at least 1 hour).
Step 4
To ice the cake, make the icing by sifting the icing sugar into a small bowl. Add the orange juice and mix well until you have a smooth and thin icing. Pour over the cooked cake and decorate with orange slices.
