Never Fail Cake. ( Recipe by A. Whybrow)
3 mugs fruit (mixed) - I tend to use the Villier and Bosch Large Mugs, dried mixed fruit, chopped dates, chopped apricots, chopped prunes with bought mixed peel and glace cherries added after the 3 mugs of the mixed fruit of the previous ones in this list 1 mug sugar - I tend to use Dark Molasses in one third and two thirds light molasses 1.5 mugs water 4 oz margarine or butter - I tend to use unsalted butter
Boil for 25 minutes
Whisk 4 large eggs in a mixing bowl, then whisk in 1 teaspoon of Bicarbonate of Soda
When cool add pinch of salt and then mix with the contents of the mixing bowl before adding 2 mugs of sifted S.R. flour and folding over until the flour has disappeared
Spoon into a greased and lined cake tin (7-8 in. square or round) Bake at 160c or 325 - 350F or Mark 3.5-4 (fan 140c) for approx. 1.5 hours for 1 lb loaf tins or 1 hour 50 minutes for an 8 inch lined circular cake tin. The cake should rise at least 50% in size. Remove from oven having tested for it being fully cooked with a skewer, empty out of tin onto a mesh tray and leave to cool. Unfortunately humans do not seem to be able to keep their hands off it, so its shelf life is limited. |

Why not bake the Never Fail Cake, cut a slice, and make a drink, before settling down to go through these mostly empty flower colour comparison pages to locate the ones with content? This is exercising
We must not overstrain ourselves, when in the prime of life by overtaxing ourselves, should we! |
