Everyone must have a favourite cake. Whilst a Victoria sandwich cake is always welcome my favourite is a madeira cake with caraway seeds. I read somewhere that the amount of caraway seeds should just be enough to give the cake an aroma of caraway. Not for me, I have yet to eat a cake that has too many caraway seeds.
Another cake favourite is a chocolate cake made with oil instead of margerine or butter. Don't let the idea of vegetable oil put you off, the cake is very light and doesn't leave a claggy feeling in the mouth that some hard fats can.
I have never quite perfected a carrot cake but I do enjoy a well made one. Finally a lemon cake is always quickly eaten.
There is something so satisfying about making a cake, it is relatively quick and the results whilst the cake is still warm can be fantastic.
