This Orange Redberry Cake is as heavenly as it looks. It literally melts in the mouth. The freshness of orange juice combined with whipped cream and lush strawberries is the perfect balance of all things sweet and pleasantly sour. There are also different textures at each bite and I love desserts which offer this!

I’ve always emphasized the importance of the right equipment for making great cakes. You can mix the batter using a spoon but using a spatula makes all the difference! If you bake in a serious manner or want to start doing that, make sure you invest in some basic bakeware and equipment. Home Centre is your one-stop shop for all the equipment you need. Their wide variety of products never fails to amaze me and what makes it even better is their price range, that is so affordable. To begin with- make sure you pick up the essentials like a mixing bowl, spatula, whisk, a round springform and measuring cups. A pastry brush is another essential. Luckily, Home Centre has it all and much more. Make sure you check out their wide collection of products HERE.
