Recipe notes
Well, it would be rude not to… in homage to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s wedding on 19th May 2018 where the London-based Violet Bakery made them a Lemon and Elderflower cake, ‘incorporating the bright flavours of spring’.
To celebrate the occasion, Penny at The Yurt Cafe came up with her own, gluten-free, take on the royal cake. And for the whole month of May 2018, her lemon, pistachio and elderflower cake was available in the Yurt cake cabinet.
Reassuringly easy, having creamed the butter and sugar, the rest of the ingredients all go in at once. With the addition of the elderflower cordial on top, the result is lovely and moist.
