Cake - just cake, any sort, doesn't matter. As long as it's cake.

I tried 'just stopping' but it fell apart like a soggy coffee cake dipped in tea as soon as i was next drunk

I don't crave cake after a ride, usually cereal or bread (sometimes broccoli)

Am I abnormal?!

I rarely eat cake!

However, a strawberry cheesecake would go down a treat right about now.

Or Cadbury's Mini-rolls - I eat them like someone loading a pump-action shotgun; one after another, without pause.

Mmmmmmm.....

cake, oh any cake but if it was a Bakewell Tart I may just push that little bit harder.

Stefano - I gave up the cigs in 2002 - used nicorettte lozenges but in industrial quantities for the first two months - cost more than fags!! Gotta make the decision yourself though ... i lived with the nagging for years first.

Crapaud - just please don't mention the mini-rolls.

STEFANOS4784

Yeh thought that was the case, used to be a chronic pot-head, came to the point where i thought fvck this, what's the point, just gotta get that mind-set with the smoking, have set dates but that is useless, hopefuly my fairly new found love of road cycling will get me there, shame i didn't find it years ago though as my other cycling mates always say i'm ideal build for it :roll: :arrow:

I bought 10 cigs a couple of hours ago, only to find that some bugger's put the prices up again! So I'm staying up late to finish them and stopping first thing tomorrow.

I think that I'll substitute with Galaxy Ripple cakes.*

Mmmmmmmmm caaaaakkkkkeeeeee

Give me any cake and I'll eat it.

Had a lovely piece of carrot cake in Pete's Eats (Llanberis) last year. There was a house-brick-sized piece in the counter so I asked for a piece of it, thinking she'd cut a slice off it. No, I got the whole house-brick-sized chunk. It was delicious

That, or some kind of chocolate cake, or a cherry bakewell, or a chocolate tiffin from my local Waterstone's - yum!

I had a blueberry muffin the size of my head in Canada.

I think you'll find that that trumps your carrot cake (which isn't a cake; it can't be, it's got vegetables in it).

On to page 2 already and no-one's mentioned hash cakes. Very strange.

Say no to cake!!!

Spotted this in the local rag



I think there was a cake advert somewhere near it.

One of the shops at work sells cakes from Fisher and Donaldons, Fudge Doughnut heaven. (A mate who emigrated to Bristol complains about the lack of Fudge Doughnuts there)[/img]

If I had to choose a cake, it would be a slice of Bun Loaf.

Since this is a regional, Christmas-season-only ,delicacy, and sweeter than I normally prefer, I usually tend to go for something more savoury (like marmite and peanut butter swirled together on thick, well-toasted bread), but I'd never turn up the chance of bun loaf over Christmas/New Year.

A big fat victoria sponge with fresh cream and jam.
There is a Nigella Lawson recipe for a really good chocolate fudge cake - gorgeous but it must have a million calories in it. I've also got a good recipe for Carrot Cake - don't like the stuff you buy out normally but this home made one, I could eat all day long. Cheesecake is always good - a new york style vanilla one with lashings of double cream.

If we stop for a cuppa and a cake, the first thing I look for is a plain scone with clotted cream and Jam......probably my favourite

There's a shop in Cromer(can't remember the name at the moment) that sells loads of home made cakes. The best by far is their Nelson Slice. Its a kind of bread pudding but with more fruit and a lot of rum in it! It to is brick size, too big in fact for me to get it in a jersey pocket when I go past on a training run so I have to eat half of it and save the rest till I get home!

"Cake?"
"Please - lots!"
No dicrimination here (oh, except dessicated coconut).

Not forgetting Bara Brith (thick with butter). My mum used to make it, not had it for years but it was lovely. My mum made fantastic cakes (and still does every now and then) - victoria sponge, fairy cakes, rock cakes, christmas cakes, the lot. Mmmmm.

And i'd like to add, i made a sultana cake a few weeks ago, and it was not bad for a beginner

Where does that leave the humble fish cake? Still, nearly time for Christmas cake, folks - can't beat a good home-made one. Less cloying and very moreish if you just make one as a bare fruit cake and leave off the marzipan etc., though.

At home In deepest, darkest Cornwall my Nan used to make scrummy saffron cake. Deep yellow with the strands still in it and lovely with butter on. Anywhere else have this? I think it is a Cornish recipe left over from the trading days of spices and tin.
