Fanta Kuchen
The Fanta cake is a moist, fruity loaf that was born in German family kitchens in the 1970s, where the orange soda replaces part of the liquid in the batter. It stays damp, lightly tangy, and keeps for several days under cling film.

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 °C (160 °C fan) and butter a 25 cm loaf tin.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until frothy, about 3 minutes.
- Gradually drizzle in the oil, then add the orange zest.
- Mix the flour, baking powder and salt, then add them in two batches alternating with the Fanta, whisking just enough to smooth the batter.
- Pour the batter into the tin and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until a skewer comes out dry.
- Let it cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.
- Mix the icing sugar with the orange juice until you get a smooth glaze, then spread it over the warm cake and let it set.
Variations and tips
Orange and chocolate version. Sift 60 g of unsweetened cocoa with the flour for a two-tone batter that's even more indulgent.
