- Preheat the oven to 180 C / Gas 4.
- Combine flour, salt and baking powder and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, cream butter with sugar. Add vanilla sugar. Then add eggs one a time and mix well. Add soured cream and mix.
- Sift flour mixture into butter mixture, mixing as you go. You should end up with smooth cake mixture.
- Divide the cake mixture in half. Add cocoa to one half.
- Grease 1.5 litre loaf tin (or similar size). Add 2 tablespoons light-coloured mixture to the centre of the tin, top with 2 tablespoons chocolate mixture. Continue alternating colours until both mixtures are used up.
- Bake in the oven for about 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
