Notes

To check if the cake is ready insert a toothpick/cocktail stick in the centre, it should come out clean with no cake stuck to it. The cake should bounce back when you lightly press it in the centre.
You can use cocoa powder to dust instead of icing sugar or drizzle with melted white chocolate
