There’s nothing quite like a piece of warm, fluffy and fragrant chiffon cake to accompany your freshly brewed cup of tea or coffee. And while the more common choices of flavours for cakes would include vanilla, chocolate, orange or lemon, how about a slice of delicious honey citron tea chiffon cake instead?
The main ingredient for the cake would be Honey Citron Tea – a zesty herbal mixture that resembles marmalade or jam and is made with the Korean fruit yuzu or yuja, honey and sugar.
The tea from this fruit is called yujacha, and tastes like a mix of lemon, orange, and grapefruit all in one. Unlike lemons, the fruit itself is not very juicy but it has a thick rind that is loaded with flavour – this can be used to make a delicious and unique marmalade or jam.
Here in Bali, you can always get yourself a jar of authentic Korean Honey Citron Tea at Puri Pangan Utama, Bali’s best grocery supplier online and best food company in Bali. With a jar of Honey Citron Tea, you can now begin to make your very own, soft, tasty, fluffy and sweet-smelling chiffon cake for the whole family to enjoy.
