Dragon fruit mini bundt cake ~ 火龍果小蛋糕


I was pleasantly surprised when these mini Dragon fruit mini bundt cakes didn't change colour upon  baking.  Well, at least there was still a tinge of pink on the top of the mini bundts.  The texture of this cake is more or less like sponge cake, soft and light and they taste wonderful, freshly baked.  If they are not finished on the day they are baked, store them in an airtight container and best eaten, lightly warmed up in the oven toaster.

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!
