I am told (by Cullen) you can’t have your cake and eat it as well.
What’s the point in having it then?

Leftover Christmas cake. Microwaved for 30 seconds and then served with "hard" sauce and hokey pokey icecream.

I've always wanted to start a "food porn" hotline -- an 0900 number service where people ring in and a suitably sexy voice describes wonderfully exotic culinary experiences.

"Chocolate brownies drizzled with rich chocolate sauce..."

"Medium-rare scotch fillet in a reduced port wine and bone marrow jus, on a blue-cheese and garlic potato mash, with steamed snow peas aside a wasabe sorbet..."

[avgas]

Choccy Gateau
no easy way to eat it though as it taste so good.

1 - Coca Cola cake. Don’t count the calories with this one! It is made for your pleasure with lots of sugar, butter, cocoa, buttermilk, marshmallows, nuts and of course, Coca Cola!

2 -Exceptionally moist and extremely velvety-rich dark chocolate mint cake makes a delectable finale to your meal. Made with chocolate morsels, brown sugar and sour cream, filled with peppermint frosting and peppermint chunks, and frosted with Ganache made with butter, chocolate and whipping cream (the real stuff). The finishing touch of peppermint patties adds a striking garnish to the top.

3 - Jack specail. Originating in Alabama, It's filling has eggs, real butter, pecans, raisins, coconut, maraschino cherries and a little of Mr. Southern himself, Jack Daniels.

4 - meat cake for men, A meatloaf! With mashed potato frosting, gravy between the layers and melted cheese, ketchup glaze
(yuk yuk yuk)

Jaffa cakes - are they cakes or Biscuits?
They have three layers; a sponge base, a layer of orange jelly and a layer of chocolate covering the jelly and the margin of the sponge.
Do they sell them in NZ?

[Trudes]

Jaffa cake? Isn't that a bunch of Aucklanders in an elevator?

[James Deuce]

Jaffa Cake's are an evolutionary dead end on the biscuit evolutionary tree. They are a sterile hybrid of Wine Biscuits and Mallowpuffs with a chromosomal disorder.

[Storm]

You;re not anti Jaffa Cakes by any chance are you Jim? Not been getting the mallowpuff quota ? :bleh:

[James Deuce]

We used to get Mallowpuffs sent to us in the UK. Jaffa Cakes were a poor substitute. Too sugary to actually be able to taste the chocolate.

[MotoGirl]

It's got to be Devil's Food Cake. You've got to nuke it for 30 seconds then lather it in cream so the icing goes all gooey :drool:

P.S. Did we decide who's baking the cake for Welly's KB bash?

[Kendog]

P.S. Did we decide what cake I am baking for Welly's KB bash?

Happy with whatever you choose ;)
