Just off to work, but have been browsing a cake recipe book with a view to trying baking whilst I'm at home.
The only cake I've ever made was a recipe from Gazza ... miss his postings here (amongst others).
Just idly wondering what people's favourite cake was ?
Jane's is a rich fruit cake.
I love all and any cake so am unable to choose a favourite ... the only exception being coffee and walnut as I like neither.

What sort of volume did you shift from the factories back in the day?

Looks and sounds gorgeous ... but something simpler to start would be sensible I think.

Lots of layer cakes in summer on the River. Fortunately I am hidden in a backwater so don't get them coming past all the time and can choose when to engage by using the gloating electric beer drinking platform or the podium launch. Which Is Good !

By the way (for those interested) we picked up an Asda Lemon drizzle cake after work ... only £2 and pretty good.

My need was urgent ... I've not even picked what I'm going to try and bake yet, let alone bought the ingredients.
Think it may be lemon drizzle 🍋🍋

Chocolate fudge cake is easy, and if it all goes wrong just call it a chocolate brownie.

Just remember to drizzle the icing in while your cake is still warm and to leave it in an airtight container for another day before being tempted to cut into it ....

The best cake in the world was made by my late mum...she once described it to me as 'madeira cake with caraway seeds'. Simple but nice. www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/madeira-loaf-cakeI remember it as baked until it had a slight crust, and that she would bake it in a tin lined with greaseproof paper.
