Blueberry and Lavender Cake

You could skip the buttercream and just serve the cake with a drizzle of icing sugar.

From Sugar Et Al
The lavender adds a beautiful , subtle aroma to the cake (almost like Earl Grey) whilst the blueberries add a moist, flavour packed bite within the cake.




Blueberry and Lavender Cake
Makes a 6 inch round cake

  • 150 g unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup castor sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 3/4 cup self raising flour
  • 200 g Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup milk (optional, if batter is too thick)
  • 1 tsp culinary lavender
  • 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C (160 degrees C for fan forced ovens). Grease the base and sides of a 6 inch round baking pan and line the base with baking paper.
  2. Using an electric mixer, or by hand beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  3. Add half the flour and half the yogurt and fold to combine. Add the remaining flour and yogurt and milk (if batter is too thick.)
  4. Stir in the lavender and blueberries and just fold one or twice to combine.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
  6. Remove from the oven. Leave aside for 10 minutes.  Slowly turn out cake onto a wire rack to cool completely. Once cool, frost with lavender frosting and decorate with blueberries.

Lavender Frosting

  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 125 g unsalted butter, softened
  • 11/2 cups icing sugar
  • A tiny bit of mauve food coloring gel

  1. Place the lavender and milk in a microwaveable cup and microwave on low until it is about to boil (do not boil). Remove and leave aside to infuse for 1-2 hours. Strain the lavender buds and reserve the milk for the buttercream.
  2. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter till pale and fluffy. Gradually add the icing sugar, a little at a time and continue to beat till incorporated. Add the lavender infused milk and beat to combine. Add the food colour if using, and mix till fully incorporated.
