Liquorice And Blackcurrant Chocolate Cake

By Nigella

Our answer

Nigella's Liquorice And Blackcurrant Cake (from SIMPLY NIGELLA) is made with fine liquorice powder. The liquorice enhances the flavour of the chocolate and the cake is usually popular with people who normally dislike liquorice. We suspect that it may be easiest to buy the powder on-line if you cannot find it locally.

Nigella uses Lakrid's fine liquorice powder. It is made by a Danish company called Lakrid's by Johan Bulow and their website suggests that they can ship internationally, so we suggest contacting them via the details on their website.
