one of my new year resulutions is to start baking more and trying to be a better cook well today i have attempted a victoria sponge (not that challenging i know) but when you cant cook a thing its daunting well i have cooked the sponges a bit off shape but not burnt im just waiting for them to cool and i will add the jam and butter icing i will take a pic to show you all.

I asked my mum and dad for a baking kit for xmas which i got and i fully plan to put it to good use its ther anniversary tomorrow so i am making it for them i hope they like it.


Just read that back and i sound like i shoud be 5 not 28 but its something i have never down. :oops:
 
Victoria sponges are one of my favourite things to bake.. so rewarding, and the taste.. *drools*
Well done for doing it, defo a tasty first step in the new year!

im hoping it tastes better then it looks as when i was transfering to a bigger plate i squashed it and all the filling oozed out :wall:
 
Yay, well done Becky! That sounds yummy, can't wait for pic!

Well done for sticking to one of your resolutions - I've got 11 and have yet to get cracking on any!

Did Willow help?

Well this is my cake before i squashed it :roll: :wall: the cake broke nearly in half hence why i turned it over causing myself to squish it i have dusted it now with icing sugar

No willow didnt help might wait a while before then when i have more of a clue as to what i am doing :D
