2 tablespoons of cornflour
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/2 cup of Turkish delight (about 6 pieces) chopped into choc chip sized pieces and dusted in icing sugar so they don't stick together

Mix the yoghurt, soy milk, oil, sugar, rosewater, lemon extract and lemon zest together.
Sieve in the flour, cornflour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
