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

    I really liked the addition of almond extract to this cake. It added just another depth of flavor and made it a little different than a plain vanilla cake. The icing recipe didn't yield enough icing to really ice the whole cake so I'd increase the proportions in the future. Overall, this was a fine cake but nothing more.

    This is an excellent classic birthday cake! The cake has a nice flavour and perfect fine crumb. I used 1 1/2 recipes of the frosting, to have a nice generous coating.
