chocolate orange cake: will this work?

[sarz]

I have some green and blacks maya gold hot chocolate powder and some oranges to squeeze into the icing!!!! a disaster waiting to happen or a scrummy cake?? i was going to use just basic 4,4,2 mixture but do i substitue some flour for the maya gold powder?

T'will be lovely. I've done something similar with G&B Maya before and it worked really well.

will be lovely
you can sub an oz of flour for the choc, or just add the choc as well and add a spolsh of milk if the mixture looks too dry

You need flour - the drinking chocolate powder is a mixture of sugar and cocoa/chocolate, so you could substitute that for the sugar (or most of the sugar).

thanks!!! i'm going to go and give it a bash, i'll let you know how it goes!! i have a three year old assistant who will be 1st to tell me if its yuck!!!
