Cooking up a storm for the King\u2019s Coronation? The bank holiday weekend is the perfect opportunity to host a dinner party.<\/p>\n
BBC Good Food shared Mary Berry\u2019s Fruity flag traybake for any royal fans looking to get creative in the kitchen on May 6.<\/p>\n
The Fruity flag traybake is impressive to look at and will no doubt go down a treat with guests. However, despite its appearance, it\u2019s surprisingly pretty “easy” to make – according to the baker.<\/p>\n
Budding bakers can whip up the traybake in just four steps, with 45 minutes of prep and 30 minutes cooking time.<\/p>\n
Cut into 15 squares, this deliciously patriotic cake can serve several royal fans during the festivities – perfect to share with your neighbours at a street party!<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n To decorate<\/strong><\/p>\n Method<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Heat oven to 180C\/160C fan\/gas four. Butter and line a 30 x 20cm traybake tin with baking parchment. Measure the sponge ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix using an electric hand whisk until smooth. Spoon into the tin and level the surface.<\/p>\n 2. Bake for 25-30 mins until lightly golden. The top of the cake should also spring back when pressed with your finger, and the sides of the sponge should be shrinking away from the sides of the tin. Carefully lift the sponge out of the tin and place on a wire rack to cool. Remove the baking parchment.<\/p>\n 3. For the icing, tip the butter into a bowl and whisk using an electric hand whisk until light and fluffy. Add half the icing sugar and whisk again until mixed. Add the remaining sugar and whisk again until smooth. Spread the icing over the top of the cold cake.<\/p>\n 4. Time to decorate! Place a double row of raspberries across the centre and down the length of the cake to make a cross. Then, place a single row diagonally from each corner to the middle. Fill in the empty spaces with blueberries. Cut into squares to serve and enjoy.<\/p>\n Mary Berry\u2019s Fruity flag traybake is the ultimate Coronation cake as it is both impressively patriotic and wonderfully simple.<\/p>\n BBC Good Food described it as a “fail-safe sponge that’s easier than it looks. Almonds and yoghurt keep it moist while its fruity decoration is suitably patriotic.”<\/p>\n\n
