I
love using pickled roselle as dried fruits in my favourite cake-butter cake!
Sweet sourish taste of the pickled roselle really goes well with rich buttery
cake. I
had been using it many times in my cake.
For
this recipe I had try using self-raising flour and low protein flour. I noticed
the one with self-raising flour yield softer texture! I guess the store bought
self-raising flour has special ingredient that give better result :D

2. Add in the sifted flour. Gradually add in the water and fold to combine.
3. Pour few tablespoons batter into cake pan, scatter some pickled roselle on it. Cover with batter and repeat this process till batter finish.
*Do not add and fold/mix pickled roselle directly into batter. The colour won’t be bright red, it turns dark purple instead.
5. Leave the cake in pan for about 10 minutes before unmould and cool on rack.
