Steps:

• 1. In a small saucepan, bring water, sugar and rosemary for syrup to a simmer. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Set aside Rosemary sprig for cake. Remove the leaves from the stem and finely chop. Transfer the simple syrup once cool enough to a jar and chill in the refrigerator. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together sugar, butter and oil until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla, lemon zest, and rosemary. Mix until well combined. Alternately add milk and dry ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Pour into an 8½ inch cake pan. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Transfer cake to a wire rack and allow to cool completely in the cake pan. With a sharp knife, poke the cake several times and drizzle with about ½ cup of Rosemary simple syrup. Cover the cake and place in the refrigerator for a couple of hours or overnight. Whisk confectioner's sugar, vanilla, simple syrup for Rosemary Glaze. Drizzle all over cake and garnish. Serve with tea or coffee and enjoy!

Steps:

• At least 6 hours before you plan to ice the cake, prepare the crystallized rosemary: Brush rosemary on all sides with a little of the egg white and then dip it in the sugar, so the needles are lightly coated on all sides. Set aside on a wire rack to dry. Repeat with remaining rosemary.
• Make the cake: Heat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit/160 degrees Celsius. Generously grease a 9-inch/23-centimeter Bundt pan with half the butter and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Butter again, generously, and then flour it, tapping away the excess.
• Put olive oil, superfine sugar, orange zest and chopped rosemary leaves in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on medium speed until combined, then add eggs, one at a time. Whisk for another minute, until thick, then add sour cream and mix until combined on low speed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the whisk.
• Sift flour, baking powder and salt together into a small bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the olive oil mixture and mix until combined. Increase speed to high and whisk for 1 minute.
• Scrape batter into the Bundt pan and smooth the top with a small spatula. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cake is cooked and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. (You may want to trim the cake at this stage, if it rises unevenly, to allow it to sit flat on the plate.)
• Prepare the icing: In a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, lemon juice and confectioners' sugar until smooth. When the cake has cooled, drizzle icing on top, allowing it to drip down the sides of the cake, then top with the crystallized rosemary and serve.
