Tea & Spice Cake

Created for Minion's birthday. This cake is full of warm spices and adding a cup of freshly brewed tea makes it amazingly moist. You'll love It!  (And once you've made it, if you can suggest a better name for it too we'd love to know.)

To make a two layer cake you'll need:

• 350g Caster sugar
  
• 250g Plain Flour
  
• 1.5 tsp Baking Powder
  
• 1.5 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
  
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
  
• 1/2 tsp Ginger
  
• 1/2 tsp Allspice (not Mixed Spice)
  
• 2 Eggs
  
• 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  
• 1 Orange (Zest only)
  
• 125ml Vegetable Oil
  
• 250ml Milk
  
• 250ml Strong Tea (We used English Breakfast)
  

Plus a portion of buttercream (or fresh cream) or one of my Frostings, depending on how you want to finish it.
