Perfect with crushed raspberries which make it taste similar to Black Forest cake

In reply to Ellie. Hi Ellie, yes it could be that the whites were not stiff enough or may be that you knocked the air our when folding in the flour mixture. Aim for soft peaks with the whites and fold everything really gently. Hope that helps!

I made this and it didn’t rise very well so you think I didn’t make my egg whites leak enough? I had to hand whisk them and was taking ages wish I carried on as tastes nice just doesn’t look cake like

In reply to Kirsty. Hi Kirsty, you can buy pre cooked beetroot from most supermarkets it's usually in a vacuum pack with no dressing or flavouring. Alternatively put the beetroot in a pan with cold water. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes or until the beetroot is tender. Drain and leave to cool. When cool enough to handle, rub off the skins with your fingers and proceed with the Chocolate Beetroot Cake. Hope that helps!
