Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Creaming the butter and sugar <\/strong>&#8211; this will take around 2-3 minutes. Don&#8217;t be tempted to rush this otherwise your cake can come out on the dense side.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How to check if the cake is cooked &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0start checking if it\u2019s ready approximately 10 minutes before the recipe states.\u00a0Persian love cake is ready when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs on it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If you find that your cake is browning too much in the oven &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0simply place a sheet of foil loosely over the top and continue cooking.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pistachios<\/strong> &#8211; raw pistachios are a more vivid green than roasted pistachios. Use <strong>unsalted<\/strong> pistachios.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rose water<\/strong> &#8211; don&#8217;t be tempted to add more than the recipe calls for! Rose water is very strong and can easily become overpowering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make sure the cake is completely cold <\/strong>before pouring over the glaze.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storing Persian love cake &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>the cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Freeze<\/strong> &#8211; you can freeze leftover cake for up to 2 months. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1721535923157\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Do I store this cake in the fridge?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No. I do not recommend storing this cake in the fridge as it can dry out.

If you really want that orange flavour to shine, you can even add a tiny dash of <strong>orange blossom water<\/strong>\u2014only about \u00bc tsp, otherwise it can overpower.

Rose water is very strong and can easily become overpowering.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Edible rose petals are optional<\/strong>, but a very pretty addition to the cake! You can buy these from speciality food stores or you can use edible florals designed for cocktails instead.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"display: block;\">\u00a0<\/span>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><strong>MORE RECIPE TIPS:<\/strong><\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Creaming the butter and sugar <\/strong>&#8211; this will take around 2-3 minutes. Don&#8217;t be tempted to rush this otherwise your cake can come out on the dense side.<\/li>\n<li><strong>If you find that your cake is browning too much in the oven &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0simply place a sheet of foil loosely over the top and continue cooking.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>How to check if the cake is cooked &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0start checking if it\u2019s ready approximately 10 minutes before the recipe states.\u00a0The cake is ready when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure the cake is completely cold <\/strong>before pouring over the glaze.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Storing Persian love cake &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong>the cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.\u00a0<strong>Do not store in the fridge<\/strong> as the cake may dry out.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Freeze<\/strong> &#8211; you can freeze leftover cake for up to 2 months.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"display: block;\"><\/span>\n\n<span style=\"display:
