Hi all,

I'm not working this week and my local is having a Macmillan coffee morning ( although I don't drink coffee lol). So I'm going to pop along, to show my support.

I didn't bake a cake as I don't want to poison anyone, but I'm thinking a slice of cake is on the menu for me this morning.

I don't eat chocolate, and I don't really eat cake anymore, but what cake to choose.

Lemon drizzle maybe? Classic victoria sponge, a muffin maybe.. I do like a Bakewell tart..

Anyhow what would you guy's go for?

  • Hi Trevor,What did you go for ? I like Lemon Drizzle cake.I used to make them quite often.Before the plumber retired he would shout lemon drizzle out of his truck window if he saw me.The cake never lasted long when he and his work mate were here.Love Jane x

  • Hi9 BFG, I love cake BUT only homemade cakes, and I am quite disciplined about how often and how much! Shop bought cakes are yuk in general. Sometimes you get a small bakers who bakes like home-cooking, we had one in my nearest town (4 miles) but sadly it has closed. I was devastated. During my BCG treatment I felt I deserved a treat so I used to bulk buy and pop them in my freezer. Most cakes freeze really well. I like a lemon sponge but I wouldn't say no to coffee walnut. I do make dark chocolate and beetroot muffins myself sometime. They are pretty yum. xx

  • Lemon drizzle all the way although living in Derbyshire I should really say Bakewell tart all the way. Maybe a piece of each would have been the way forward. Rofl who says you can't have your cake and eat it, I certainly do when I have some cake.

  • Hi Jane,

    Nice selection of homemade cakes, I went for a slice of Pear and walnut, very nice and the misses went for Victoria.

    Ah nice, good to keep the workmen happy.

  • Hi Hero 

    I know what you mean with shop or mass produced cakes. They seem to be getting worse also.

    You definitely deserve a treat after BCG..

  • I do have a fondness for Bakewell or anything frangipane based, but Lemon drizzle is up there..

  • I have such a sweet tooth like my sister and my late dad.There are not many cakes and puddings I don’t like.I’m allergic to dates so sticky toffee pudding is out though.I don’t like cooking much but I don’t mind baking.x

  • Sticky toffee pudding is also up there for me, but I really don't have a sweet tooth, but every now and then I do fancy a desert or cake etc.

    Sorry to hear your allergic to dates though.

    My other half likes to bake occasionally, but I would certainly not allow strangers to try anything I baked, well not without signing a waiver before hand.

  • I seem to be having a reaction to most foods now it’s depressing.I like dates but since childhood they have made me ill if I have eaten them by mistake.

  • Sorry to hear that...
