Author Notes

That is a recipe you could always memorise because it’s far so straight forward and straight forward to adapt. That you just must presumably presumably recognise a pair of of my variations. These exiguous citrus cakes are gluten free when made with buckwheat flour, nonetheless you need to presumably presumably spend spelt or regular flour. The orange blossom and honey syrup add an pleasing floral component. —Jordan Rondel, The Caker
