I chanced upon a bottle of dried lavender flowers during my usual supermarket trip and I have decided to buy it and aimed to bake it soon.....hahahaha my soon turned out to be 3 months later.
This cake uses quite a lot of flour and I was rather uncomfortable with it as I was afraid that the cake may be really dense and hard. However, since I only found this receipe with Lavender, I have decided to just give it a go and see how it will turn out.... If you never try, you will never know.
It was getting exciting as the aroma started to rise and I cannot wait to taste the cake!
The cake was really dense as I expected and heavy. However, the aroma from the lavender and the wonderful lemon zests gave it a nice lift. I can only describe the experience after a bite as sensory wonders....savoring the wonderful aromatherapy session to my taste buds!
The cake tasted a lot better the next day but became a little harder the following day.
I will definitely bake with lavender again. However, I will use my favourite pound cake recipe and tweak it instead :)
I won't be posting the recipe this time as I only want to post recipes that, in my opinion, is good...hahahahaha... perfectionist lah... However, if you are still keen on having the current recipe, you can drop me a comment and if I gather enough request, I will definitely post it :)
