5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 x 200 g loaves Madeira cake
  • 1½ cups cream
  • 200 g white chocolate
  • 1 t red food colouring
  • 1 t rose-water
  • 300 g coconut flakes

Method

Using a sharp knife, carefully slice off the rounded edges of each Madeira loaf and cut the remaining cake into large squares.

Heat the cream in the microwave for a few seconds until just warm. Add the broken white chocolate and stir until melted. Set aside to thicken slightly before mixing in the food colouring and rose-water.

Drizzle generously over the vanilla sponge squares , then sprinkle with the coconut flakes. Allow to set before serving.
