Step 8

Bake in the centre of the oven for approximately 1hr 15minutes or until a skewer comes out clean from the centre of the cake.

Step 9

Allow to cool in the tin for 20 minutes, invert a cooling rack on top of the tin and turn upside down, mix the glaze together and heat in the microwave for 20/30 seconds on full power. Brush over the top of the cake.
