This sounds great, does it freeze well? Thanks
Hi-I’ve not frozen it myself but I regularly freeze different types of cake. I freeze it in portions in a plastic lunch box until needed. This should also freeze fine. I cannot see any reason it won’t.
What size tin please ?
I’ve been trying to get in touch with the original author to find out but with no luck. I suggest finding a simlar recipe and using same size tin. to do this, add the weights of the total ingredients as this will indicate the volume the tin needs to hold. If I come up with a better answer I will of course edit this.
