Waht about using Dime bars maybe?? They are as close to butterscotch as I can think of xx

Mmmm yeah a Dime is very similar, orrrrr, those werthers original choccy things, not the hard sweets, but those new ones they started doing?

I have a lot of older 'classic' cake recipes, lots of older books from family

I love making my Nanny's three best sellers (as was, at their allotment shows in the 1980's!!).
Chocolate sponge with chocolate butter cream frosting (normally done for Easter with lil fluffy yellow chicks and Cadbury's mini-eggs on top!!), basic Victoria sponge, but with vanilla butter cream frosting in the middle instead of fresh cream as it keeps longer in the tin! and her much-loved lemon-iced sponge which still gets my brother excited, even if mine is not exactly the same as hers, it's very similar! Must be eaten with a cup of tea at 3pm on a Saturday.

I made some cupcakes before Christmas that were filled with white and milk chocolate chunks and had chocolate butter cream frosting on top..... they were a seriously guilty treat.

It's a solid layer of icing, I think maybe she used some Royal Icing, rather than just the standard stuff, but it's made with Lemon Juice, no water! Her sponge mix was more dense than mine, but we have no clue what recipe she used.... No one in the family has really tried it but me, she passed away in 1997, whilst I was still sitting my G.C.S.E.s.

 

[polo_princess]

Sounds scrummy!!

 

[WILMAFLINSTONE]

Ahhhh that sounds fab! When I make my lemon and poppyseed cakes and muffins I also use lemon juice to make the icing...maked it gorgeous and tangy!

Its great tho that your carrying on her recipe....xxx

oh your cakes look lovely I can't find any photos of mine, I thought my facebook would be full of them......but apparently not, I think the problem is they don't last long enough to get photographed lol

Hubby is excited about the prospect of cakes now

 

[WILMAFLINSTONE]

Thank you Ha I know that used to be the case when I first started making them but they know they arnt allowed to eat the ordered stuff lol!

feel the need for a carrot cake soon! Yum yum xx

 

[Rosie's Mummy]

Im saving up for a Kitchenaid mixer, anyone got one? Should have bought one this week but spent all my money on a new camera!

 

[WILMAFLINSTONE]

Oh no it is a new gadget RM? Ive got my trusty Kenwood which does some of the hard work me....lol xx

 

[tinkerbell86]

My oh's mums banana cake is the best and she's now given us the actual recipe now so might have a go when I get some bananas!!

My mums fruit cake is also a classic!I don't like glace cherries and peel in a cake so her recipe is perfect!
