Looking for a cake to wow your friends which isn't super complicated? Then this is the cake.
Made in collaboration with Natures Charm Whipping Cream, I subbed most of the oil due to the creams natural fatty content and the texture turned out perfectly! Not to forget to mention it adds a subtle flavour to the overall cake which compliments the use of cacao in this recipe!
