Oh cake, sweet cake. You can keep me going on this subject for days. My fav is carrot cake, nope chocolate cake, maybe white choc and raspberry cupcake, mmmm coffee cake, lemon drizzle *drools*
I love a nice moist chocolate fudge cake, but also partial to carrot cake
Not really a big cake eater but lemon cheesecake is one I do like every so often
Don't eat cake these days but used to love any form of chocolate cake (my mum made some delicious ones with cream and chocolate icing).
I have the most amazing recipe for chocolate fudge cake which makes it's own choc fudge sauce as it cooks....
Lemon drizzle, coffee and walnut, chocolate, a good old victoria sponge with cream and strawberries.... Too many to choose from.....
So I'm going to need the recipe for this please.
The "ultimate" chocolate cake, is chocolate sponge batter (made with 50% light brown sugar 50% caster for a fudgier taste) with white and dark chocolate chips mixed in. With chocolate buttercream in the middle (also with white/dark chocolate chips stuffed in), then more chocolate buttercream on the top and 8 miniture heroes/celebrations on the top! Want to know the best bit Suzi? It's almost dairy free, the white chocolate ships and celebrations aren't but the rest is! (I'm too used to dairy free baking to change to anything else now!)
I have to admit (because I never usually give myself any credit) I am an awesome baker. I make a mean choc fudge cake, Victoria sponge, coffee cake, raspberry and coconut cake, carrot cake, lemon drizzle cake, coffee and walnut cake, choc orange and peppermint choc cakes, bakewell tart and neopolitan cupcakes!
My signature would be a Victoria sponge and my other no cook treat would be chocolate truffles. The only cooking they need is to melt the chocolate.
But having said that my favourite to eat would be chocolate fudge cake.
I am a fan of the chocolate fudge cake but my favourite has always been victoria sandwich cake with propper butter icing and strawberry jam in the middle!
Oh my .....
You can buy peppermint extract, then I just dress it up with mint choccies
Well I admit I generally prefer men, except where there is cake.
Awwww first DWD wedding, Suzi, get your hat and your best Cilla impression (giggle)
Hold on she hasn't accepted yet. Not the first time I've proposed on this forum, lol
Just been reading through this thread and it really made me smile, started off about cake and ended with weddings. :)
Dude it's still about cake.......WEDDING CAKE!!!!!
Ginger cake in the oven! I may have put a bit too much ginger in it.....
No such thing.
10 heaped, and I mean HEAPED, tablespoons.
DId you have custard with ginger cake?
You can have custard with ANY cake
We had custard, it would have been criminal not to.
I like custard with bakewell tart.
