Note
Leave the poured cake mixture as is for clean look or use toothpick/fork to create swirls.

Remember to tap the pan a few times or your cake will look like above! A bit holey and not dense

Have it just like that or pipe whipped cream onto the cake after cooled. This is a sour-ish cake. Perfect for when you want something different :) 

Happy baking!
