My Mummy's cakes


My Mummy loves baking. She is doing loads of little fruit cakes at the moment. She is feeding them. I always thought they were supposed to feed us but never mind... such a complicated lot those humans.


I know I have promised to do a site for her for a long time now so Nanny and Grandad who have asked to see pictures of her cakes can see them, but it is really difficult to get my little paws round the camera and just don't get me started on the keyboard.....

Anyway, here are some of them.

Some of them are rich fruit cake and some are sponge.

ONE DAY I will get a cake. I know this because I have seen a pet's cook book on her shelf... she thinks I don't know, but I am really looking forward to Christmas this year!!!

Anyway, back to business. On these photos you can see....

Keep watching!!!


Her favourite recipe for sponge is
  • 4oz self raising flour
  • 4oz sugar
  • 4oz butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • few drops of vanilla essence or whatever flavour she is using
cook at 170 degrees C for about 25 to 30 mins
This quantity makes about 15 little fairy cakes too.

She calls this her basic batch and literally doubles or trebles etc EVERYTHING according to the size of the cake she is doing.

The best ever recipe in the while wide world is for microwave treacle pudding.
Keep watching and I'll find it in her book and post it here. Ready to eat in 10 mins. Yummy....
Anyway, I have to go now

lots of love from
