We used half of the ingredients suggested for the cake and the result was amazing – delicious feather-light cake! Haven’t added any icing or strawberries, it was nice enough, could only taste better with cream or fruit on top, will try it next time!
I was really looking forward to making this cake.
When I got around to making it, it landed up taking 1hour and a half to bake it!
My result was so so. :(
