Note from the realms of Great Coincidence: the cake I made at the weekend - for my dairy-free friends, as it happens - is more or less a hybrid of these two. A chocolate, orange and almond cake, with the boiled oranges (one hour is enough, I find, in a simple lidded saucepan) and cocoa and lots of real chocolate too. And an apricot glaze. It's yummy, and I've been eating it all week and there's still a lot left (a narrow slice is plenty, I find). Happily, it seems to be surviving the passage of time in near-perfect condition, thus far...
