BAM cocoa powder has a warm, red-brown colour and a pleasant chocolate taste. It is based on cocoa beans from West Africa, with additional flavour and spice from beans from other parts of Africa, Asia and South America. The very fine texture makes it easy to blend. It is ideal for biscuits, cakes, ice creams and other desserts. BAM Chocolate is for all home makers and professional confectioners who want to add the finishing touch to their confectionery with exquisite chocolate.

This time, we''ve used cocoa in a recipe for a chocolate cake with a Mediterranean twist.

In a bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar and lavender flowers. Add the eggs to the mixture and sift in the flour and baking powder. Mix well.

Pour the water into another pan, bring to the boil and add the cocoa, then stir. Pour the boiling water and cocoa into the dough and stir until the mixture is smooth.

Prepare a baking tin and pour the dough into it. Place the baking tray in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for about 35 to 40 minutes.

The only thing left to do is to prepare the topping. Melt the chocolate chunks, butter, sweet cream and sugar over a water bath.

Pour the cream over the cake, garnish with a sprig of lavender and serve.
