This marble cake is so light and fluffy, paired with the chocolate ganache,

Some notes before you begin:

CAN I MAKE THIS CAKE WITHOUT GANACHE?

Of course, this marble cake can also be enjoyed without the ganache if you don’t fancy something too chocolatey. Simply skip the instructions for the ganache.

WHICH CAKE TIN SHOULD I USE?

I have used 2x 22cm round cake tins for this recipe. If you have a larger cake tin, you can also bake the entire batter in just one tin or use a loaf tin. This will take longer to bake so be sure to do the toothpick/knife test!

HOW DO I KNOW MY CAKE IS COOKED?

To check if the cake is done, use a knife or toothpick and insert it into the centre of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If there is cake batter stuck to it, the cake is not ready.

CHOCOLATE

For the chocolate ganache, cooking chocolate is best! Ideally with a cocoa percentage of 40-50%.

MILK

I have used semi skimmed dairy milk in this recipe but you can use plant based milk. I often use oat milk as an alternative!
