That cake in the picture is one I have just started making and I thought some of you might just want to try it .So here is the list of what you need and what you do with it . When I made it for the weekend away we had it came straight out of the oven and into my car , so we had teh smell of it all the way to the cottage, which was an hours journey.First thing we did when we got there was to pop the kettle on , ice the cake and eat it.

500ml tub Greek yogurt

300g good lemon curd

3 eggs

zest n juice 1 lemon

8oz SR Flour

6oz golden caster sugar

200g punnet blueberries

5oz icing sugar


it goes in the oven at Gas 3 or 160c in a 2lb loaf tin


put 4oz yogurt , 2tbsp lemon curd , butter , eggs , lemon zest , flour and caster sugar in a mixing bowl and mix until a nice lump free batter (you can do it by hand or electric , it's up to you )

place half of mix in the tin spinkle on 2oz blueberries then rest of mix followed by another 2oz berries.

bake for 1hr 15mins , when cool turn out and mix icing sugar with enough of the lemon juice to make a thick , smooth icing , spread over cake top.
