SPICED HONEY CAKE

[Kiya]

Well here it is, can't say I'm really pleased as it is a touched burned around the edges, but, still is delicious, maybe I shouldn't have pre heated the oven as I did notice it more or less burn so quickly!


Looking at the recipe card it looks well done also


Here is the recipe for anyone having a go

That looks tasty Kiya, I will try that one day
Anything with lots of sugar/honey is going to burn quickly, if it were me I would stay with a pre-heated oven, but knock the cooking heat back to Gas Mark 2 and bake for longer.

I have not heard any mention of 'soggy bottoms' That's about all I know about. bad, cake making......so yours must all be good Send us a slice Kiya

Horus ...thanks for that tip I didn't know/realise it would burn so quickly, I shall remember in future about lots of sugar/honey.

Grandad no soggy bottoms so far, .....a slice on it's way to you

Looks wonderful! Don't worry about the black bits - I raised two children to adulthood and they survived LOTS of black bits. Adds fibre and variety to the diet!

You are like me LLL, ate all the burnt bits as a kid

Hunger is a great motivator for a child. Waste not want not was the motto in my family and I really never did want a child in India to starve!

I'm not a cook at all and mostly only aim for edible Anything over and above edible is a bonus
