5 of the best cakes according to you

5. Citrus cake

Perhaps it’s because it’s citrus season, but there’s a lot of love for citrus cakes. Lemon poppy seed, blood orange and olive oil, lemon drizzle and chocolate-and-orange chocolate cake were some of the suggestions. We can’t choose a favourite. They all sound so good!

4. Vanilla cake

Who says vanilla is boring? Given its versatility, it’s no wonder many of you love it. Some of your favourite ways to have it include smothering it in vanilla buttercream, adding caramel frosting, topping it with colourful sprinkles and going old school with apricot jam and coconut.
