Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Easy apple cake

      Excellent, same cake as the Strawberry Dessert Cake.

  • Cheese scones

      Really delicious scones, light and fluffy. I largely followed the recipe but didn't add the mustard or cayenne and instead added a little old bay seasoning. I added a little extra cheese and popped some on top too. I used a 7" fluted cutter as couldn't find my 8" and it made 12 scones. Quick, easy and delicious - definitely one to make again!

Publishers Text

The recipes in Fast Cakes are really fast! Most of them can be prepared in less than ten minutes and baked in under and hour. These are not instant cakes but proper cakes of all kinds - from old nursery favourites such as Fruit Cake, Gingerbread and the reassuringly named, Can't-go-wrong Chocolate Cake to the more adventurous but equally speedy delights of Praline Meringue, Iced Queen Cakes and Mocha Gateau. This tempting selection includes delicious chapters on tray bakes, no-bake cakes, tea breads, scones and biscuits as well as an invaluable introduction, a sensible emergency section, useful hints and straightforward children's recipes. Altogether this is the complete book for busy bakers.
