- Spoon the mixture into greased and base lined 2 x 20cm sandwich tins or one 20cm square cake tin.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C, 160°C fan, gas mark 4 for 30 minutes in the sandwich tins or 45 — 50 minutes in the square tin or until cooked.
- Turn out on to a wire tray.
- Put the fruit juice and sugar in a saucepan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
- Whilst cake is warm, drizzle the syrup over so that it soaks into the cake.
