I love a good loaf cake because as much as I love buttercream, cake sponge is my favourite thing and it really gets centre stage in a loaf cake. There’s been so much love for my Chocolate Orange Loaf Cake recipe, so I really wanted to make a Biscoff version as it’s such a popular flavour. I’ve mixed Biscoff spread into the batter for this Biscoff Loaf Cake, and I’ve used brown sugar for a caramelised colour and flavour. I like my loaf cakes to be quite big for maximum sponge, so this one is baked on a low temperature for over an hour to create a lovely flavoursome and moist cake. The buttercream also has Biscoff spread in it, and I’ve decorated it with Lotus Biscoff biscuits of course!
Step by step…
To make the sponge I mixed the butter, Biscoff spread and sugar together, then whisked in eggs.
Then I added self raising flour and whisked in.
I poured the mixture into my lined loaf tin and baked it for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
I made a Biscoff buttercream and decorated the top of the loaf cake with it.
For more Biscoff deliciousness I decorated the top of the Biscoff Loaf Cake with as many Lotus biscuits as I could fit!
I could’ve eaten so many slices of this yummy cake, but I was good and shared it with my partner’s colleagues who sent back an empty cake tin which is always a good sign!

Amazing recipe! Easy enough to bake, and absolutely delicious. Thank you, can’t wait to try more x
Cant wait to try this but want to ask is the sugar in the cake golden caster or soft brown?
Hi Margaret, it’s light brown sugar as listed in the recipe ingredients, I think sometimes it’s also called soft brown sugar 🙂
The perfect Lotus cake! The buttercream turned out super soft and fluffy with the perfect amount of Lotus taste! The cake is not overly sweet so the buttercream provides just the right amount of sweetness to the cake! Was delicious! Want to try the Lotus Cupcakes next time 🙂
Thank you Saimah!!
I made this today and it came out perfect! It was moist, not too sweet but perfectly lotus flavoured and a bit hit with the family – thank you :))
Thanks so much Ella!
I baked this cake for our charity bake at work and it was a hit. The recipe is spot on. Thank yo Kat – @revsfouryou
Thank you so much Eva!
Hey I’m wanting to use this recipe to make it in a round 9inch would it be the same Ingredients and time in the oven? Thanks
Hi Humairah, you could make this in a 9 inch round tin, but it would have to have deep sides – I’d say 2 inch tall minimum. It’s hard to say on the baking time as I’ve never baked it in that size tin, I’d estimate 30-40 minutes, but please do check it’s cooked through before taking out of the oven. Let me know how it goes!
Amazing recipe, thank you sharing. Btw I used 200grams of powdered sugar instead, and it was delicious and perfect consistency!
