I always wanted to cook with lavender. I tried it for the first time last night and it's probably one of the best cakes I have ever made. Had to share!

Steps

30 mins

1

Preheat your oven to 200c/400f and line or greaseproof a 8 inch cake tin.
2

Blend together the butter and castor sugar.
3

Separate the eggs and add yolks to butter and sugar and mix
4

In another bowl whisk your whites till frothy. This is what will make your sponge extra nice ;)
5

Add your mixed spice and lavender to the cake mix. I prefer dried lavender but you can use fresh.
6

Serve your flour and mix it all together. It should start to come together like a bowl dough.
7

Bit by bit add your egg whites and mix hard till you have a thick cake mix.
8

Add to your tin.

Now as a kitchen witch here i say a little verse that I wish those who eat this cake have good health and healing (lavender has excellent healing properties) but this isn't a must ;)

Place in the oven for roughly 20 minutes. Check doing the age old clean knife test.
