Recipe Review
Zosia from Toronto, ON
The house smelled heavenly while this baked. And the finished cake tasted even better!
The texture was nice and moist – courtesy of the yogurt, or perhaps the ½ lb butter required – and had a very complex flavour: it was nicely spiced, without one ingredient being predominant, with a nice kick provided by black pepper. Ground walnuts in place of some of the flour, and orange rind were nice complements to the spice mix.
I’m unfamiliar with this author so I was happy to see that the instructions were clear and baking times, accurate; it baked up beautifully in the time mentioned in the recipe.
The author suggests serving it with mangoes, which I did. Delicious!

Thank you, Queezle Sister, it tasted even better the next day when all the flavours had melded.

There is a nice selection of Flo Braker recipes on cookstr - and they all look amazing. I'm wondering if this recipe is similar to the one you made:

The cake recipe is similar but there are quite a few small differences in the amount of yogurt, leavening, cake vs AP flour, and flavorings, obviously. I would think that this cake would be equally moist though, and probably more tender (because of cake flour) than the spice cake. It looks good!
What a great site! Thank you for the link.
