This beautifully neat vanilla cake from Simon Jenkins will stay moist and fresh for up to two days at room temperature, so it’s a perfect make-ahead bake for the festive period. Filled with a core of set cranberry and quince gel, it’s a stunning creation that will finish off a winter dinner party with a bang.
Simon uses a loaf tin with a pipe insert to create the hole in the centre of the cake, but you could also serve the gel alongside the cake if preferred.
