Carrot Cake

 

Of course I start the thing then realise I'm missing some ingredients. No sultanas so I substituted for half chopped nuts, half cinnamon cranberries. Had no ginger so added some nutmeg and mixed spice and a pinch of luck ;) Think this might be my favourite so far.

Boozy Christmas Cake

Made these a few weeks ago. Simple recipe, almost too simple. Hmmm might have to eat some just to check it's OK ;) Feeding them with alcohol every few weeks before they get iced.

Vegan Birthday Cake for My Mate Hazel

I used the Victoria Sponge recipe for my cake. First attempt at decorating, so happy enough. Covered cake in buttercream before covering with fondant (You can buy ready made or make your own). I used little icing pens I found in Poundland, anything for an easy life.

Victoria Sponge

I've never had Victoria sponge before so have no way of knowing if it was a success or not. It was firm, springy and syrupy. You could have taken it to the bath, had a wash with it, then had it with a cup of tea. I liked it! The recipe quantities make a hearty big cake.

A Big Chocolate Cake To Get Things Started

 Followed the recipe closely but if you want a decent sized cake, double the ingredients. Didn't bother with a glaze, just dark chocolate and choc chip topping. Buttercream filling consists of 75g vegan margarine, 175g icing sugar, few drops of vanilla extract. If you like a rich cake, this is for you.
