Deliciously moist cake thanks for the recipe. I reduced the sugar to 100g and added 2 large spoons of lime marmalade. It made 24 squares of mouthwatering “yummyness!!”

This cake is as delicious as I’d hoped it would be. I’ll definitely be making over and over again! X

It wouldn’t be as good as you wouldn’t get the correct lime icing to cake ration, you’d have more cake and not enough icing, plus I don’t know what size of loaf tin you’d need. I’d say a round tin would be a better swap. I’m sure there are websites that tell you what size tins equate to others or the changes in cooking times needed.

Hi Aarthi, perhaps your oven runs hotter than mine, this shouldn’t be a crumbly cake at all. Maybe knock a couple of minutes off and test with a skewer next time. More sharpness, maybe add more lime juice to the icing or ditch the icing and mix lime juice with sugar so it seeps in more. See my Chocolate Orange Cake for what I mean! https://www.fabfood4all.co.uk/easy-chocolate-orange-cake/

It was very slightly crumblier than a regular cake, not that anything went waste anyway.
Is there any way to up the tang? Family loved it, personally I’d like more sharpness.
Easy cake, definitely making this again!

Hi Fiona, no all my oven temperatures are for conventional ovens. That said I have a fan oven but everything comes out half raw if I use the fan temperature suggested in recipes or on packs of frozen food!

I really want to make this cake. But is the oven temp for fan assistant ovens?

So glad you liked it. 60 minutes does sound odd, maybe your oven’s thermostat is slightly out of sorts.

Absolutely lovely… and so easy! I did need go bake it for more like 60 mins before skewer came out clean though…

Was just after an all in one recipe that I could make super fast while the small boy naps. Job done! I chopped up dates to put in the mix and topped with salted caramel icing made with the Sugar and Crumbs icing sugar. I reckon the lime version would be more to my taste but the boys like their toffee/ caramel!

I wouldn’t do that as I have never seen citrus added to a cake mix, you really get a refreshing zing by adding the lime juice to the icing which soaks into the cake so no need anyway.
