Take a normal sponge cake recipe: equal weights of butter/margarine, flour, sugar and eggs and a tad extra baking powder if required - and add a handful of washed, chopped lavender. A ring tin is the best!
Do the same for coffee cake, leaving out the lavender and adding a tablespoon or two of boiling hot water with at least a teaspoon of instant coffee dissolved in it. Fill layers and ice the top with butter icing, coffee flavoured in the same way....
And then there is a coconut cake: the same mixture with a handful/half cup of desiccated coconut mixed in, iced with butter icing flavoured with desiccated coconut too...
