Roselle Cake Lapis

Another lapis cake... ^^ I like this one a lot. It had fine, smooth and soft texture. It looks wonderful in pink red too. Although it is named Roselle but there is no Roselle flower in it at all. I guess due to the pink red color of the layer so the it is named as Roselle lapis. :D My two boys love lapis cake too. Once they start having the first piece, they will ask for more ... " Can I have some more please?" You might like to try to make this one too.... ^^
