Old-fashioned cherry cake from Delia's Cakes by Delia Smith

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Lepa on May 20, 2018

    We weren't crazy about this cake. It is too sweet, dry and the flavor lacks dimension. I think it needs a bit of salt. Perhaps the butter Delia uses has salt? I am paging through the book and notice none of her recipes call for salt. If you bake with unsalted butter, like me, I recommend adding a bit of salt to balance the flavors. Note: the recipe suggests using an 18 centimeter pan but I think that would be too small. I used a 9 inch pan and it was perfect.
