Nestlé Quality Street Matchmakers Zingy Orange (Pack of 5)

Product Information

For the margarine, simply use a plant-based option that contains no milk - aim for one with an 80% fat content, if possible. To make it gluten free, swap the digestives to gluten free biscuits. You will also need to use gluten free chocolate orange. Terry’s is the well known brand and this isn’t gluten free, but there are gluten free alternatives.

If you do make your sponges ahead then make sure that you let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. Otherwise, they might come out a bit soggy, as they can absorb the moisture released in the container when they’re warm. Can I keep Matchmaker cake in the refrigerator? To make the ganache for this recipe you’ll need to use fresh cream. If you use older cream, it might not react as the recipe states and you’re more likely to end up with a poor quality ganache that splits more easily.

Most popular with customers in United States of America (USA), France, Canada, Italy, Spain, UK - England, Germany, Denmark and BFPO, but you can buy Quality Street Matchmakers Zingy Orange for delivery worldwide. This recipe includes both self-raising flour and bicarbonate of soda, so as long as these are used, your cake should rise. However, this cake is nice and moist because of the oil, so it should only gently rise. So don't worry if your cake only rises a little. Some people also melt chocolate and then add hot cream over it, which can help to reduce the risk of splitting further, although it will take longer to cool to a spreadable consistency. If you want to change the flavours of your Matchmaker cake you could use a different flavour of Matchmaker, or a different flavoured chocolate.

For the butter icing, place the butter and cream cheese in a large mixing bowl and add half the icing sugar. Beat by hand with a metal spoon until smooth. Beat in the remaining icing sugar. Mix in the orange zest and juice. Add enough orange food gel to your colour liking. To make the chocolate sponge, mix the butter and sugar together, then whisk in eggs and milk, and then whisk in cocoa powder, self rasing flour and baking powder. Divide the mixture beteween the tins and bake for 35 minutes, then leave to cool completely. However, you shouldn’t add any more chocolate to the ganache as it must be a 50/50 split of chocolate and cream to ensure it comes together properly and doesn’t split. How should I store Matchmaker cake?This cake uses oil and golden syrup in the recipe to ensure it’s moist yet light. So as long as all the ingredients are added in the correct quantities this cake should turn out lovely and moist. However, if your cake has turned out dry then it might be because you forgot to add an ingredient. Place tablespoons of mixture at least 5cm (2 inches) apart on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
