For the chocolate icing:
A beautifully colourful marble loaf cake featuring three delicious layers of lemon, chocolate and cherry-flavoured sponge. Made with Gellwe Lemon and Cherry Flavour Kisiel Mixes and Extra Dark Cocoa Powder, this soft, fluffy cake is finished with a smooth chocolate icing. A fun and eye-catching homemade bake that's perfect for family gatherings, afternoon tea or special occasions.
Prepare the cake batter. Separate the egg yolks from the whites and beat the yolks with the sugar until light and creamy. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Mix the flour with the baking powder.
Gradually add the oil, sparkling water and flour mixture alternately to the beaten egg yolks, mixing continuously. Finally, gently fold in the whisked egg whites.
Divide the batter into three equal portions (ideally, weigh them). Add the cocoa powder and 50 ml of water to the first portion. Mix the Gellwe Lemon Flavour Kisiel Mix with 50 ml of cold water and add it to the second portion. Mix the Gellwe Cherry Flavour Kisiel Mix with the remaining 50 ml of cold water and add it to the third portion. Mix each portion until combined.
Line a loaf tin with baking parchment. Spoon the lemon batter into the tin first, followed by the chocolate batter and finally the cherry batter. Place the tin in a preheated oven and bake at 180°C for approximately 60 minutes.
Prepare the icing. Mix the icing sugar and sifted cocoa powder with the water until smooth and thick. Spread the icing over the top of the cake.
