Many reasons why i love to shop at Ikea. Some inspiration on how i should redecorate our cosy country home, dine at the Bistro with my favourite finger-licking good chicken wings or just simply enjoy a fika between my shopping. Before heading out the store, a detour to the Swedish food market is a must. Every trip, bag with pleasant surprises.
Love the 1960's feel on these photos.
If only i can turn back the clock, bring the wheel of time to stop...*humming Johnny hates Jazz*
Highlight for today's bake, Organic SYLT FLÄDER & APELSIN Orange & Elderflower marmalade. One of the treasure i found in Ikea. I usually serve it with bread, spread on crisp toast for breakfast. Love the citrusy orange peel, the refreshing taste with the addition of the marmalade to my chiffon.
The icing, was oh sooo good! Sweet to the palate but balance off with the zesty orange peel. Pistachios added crunch to the soft pillowy chiffon. Just a little way to dress up a plain chiffon.

I am first one here today! Love your adding of the
ReplyDeleteOrange & Elderflower marmalade in the chiffon and so creative to add pistachios on top. Looks perfect and yummy!
May I ask if the marmalade is bitter?
ReplyDeleteMost of them are, which refrains me from consuming marmalade, especially those with rinds
Very pretty presentation. Love the idea that you added marmalade onto chiffon. How does your kids react to the orange rind in the cake?
ReplyDeleteLooks so good! The chiffon is just perfect. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletebeautiful chiffon and sound good
ReplyDeleteAnn: a slice for you for being early here :)
ReplyDeleteYes, i love the pistachios too. Will use more often for my bakes than my usual walnuts.
Zoe: Thanks for your compliment Zoe. My children like it as it was rather tangy taste with the rind. Infact, i'm thinking of experimenting by adding more next time.
Wendy: To individual liking, however, i don't find this one bitter. More to tangy & not overly sourish. I personally like it.
Jet: Thanks for your sweet words :)
Sonia:

ReplyDeleteJessie, I am planning to bake orange chiffon next week too! Yours is pretty unusual using marmalade in the batter. ;) thanks for sharing this!

ReplyDeleteHi Jessie,
ReplyDeletethe way the pistachios are arranged make them look as though they are green petals, very clever idea. Its quite an innovative idea using orange marmalade on top of orange juice and orange zest.
I like shopping at Ikea too, but its more for getting kitchenware and utensils. They look good and are pretty good to use. If only they have a section specifically for baking and have more goods to offer
