Rose Zebra Stripes Ogura Cake

I love rose smell, syrup, aroma, fragrance, anything smell rose is my favourite.  I have been wanted to make something with Rose.  Happily, I found Rose Paste, haven't seen Rose Essence or Rose Water around, anyway i am happy enough to find Rose Paste, i can start making one Rose Cake now.

Here i used Jeannietay BluePea Ogura recipe to create a Rose flavour Ogura Cake to the next level..... lol *feeling crazy.   This recipe is very straight forward and easy, i just added a tsp of Rose Paste into batter. If you want to create a darker color or stronger rose flavour, you may add 1tbsp of paste instead of 1tsp or just add 1tsp of Rose Essence.

You may notice that this cake has a weird looking stripes, i did it on purpose to create another looking stripes instead of the regular zebra stripes.

Beautiful Rose Zebra stripes Ogura Cake, so soft, delicious, delicate, 
every bite taste and smell so rosy and a beautiful pink color.

* Divide batter into 2 bowls.  Mix in Rose Paste into one portion ( Ensure plain batter is slightly more than Rose batter. )  With a spoon, scoop batter into baking pan in 5 separates dollops like flower petals and one in the middle a dollop, about 2-3tbsp each dollop, continue alternatively until top.  When the circle getting smaller, reduce tablespoons of batter into 1 tbsp.

 Which ever batter is more, use as the 1st layer to do the stripes 
and continue alternatively. As i did another way round, there for i end up with
alot of pink covering the plain batter :(
