Bad Boys Bakery lemon treacle slice OMG

The recipe used by the bad boys bakery in Gordon Ramsey's excellent TV series `Gordon behind bars'. This lemon treacle slice is divine.

Guess the weight of the cake!

This is the chocolate marble cake I made for my nephews school fete in the classic Guess the weight of the cake competition. The answer: 13lb and 12oz.

Today is Stir Up Sunday. The last Sunday before Advent. I made my xmas puddings today, after soaking the fruit is brandy overnight. They are now steaming away in the slow cooker for several hours. This process makes them very moist and full of flavour. Stir-up Sunday dates back to Victorian times, when cooks prepared the Christmas pudding by stirring the mixture and adding silver coins as good luck token!
