Something else. OOPS! Swapping around steps three and five will result in a much better cake! - 24 Sep 2010
This was a really lovely cake. It's very moist, and extremely large. I'd recommend using baking parchment as it was quite delicate when it came out from the oven and was deformed a little by using a palette knife! This might have had something to do with it being cooked in an aga though.... - 02 Aug 2010 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
