| Fanfare please..... Ok, so I am now knee deep in marble cake! Mk III NOT a success - like a clot I forgot to lightly grease the greaseproof which I put on at the start and planned to Whip Off for the last 15mins. When I whipped off the greaseproof, the top of the cake came with it!!! And NO I am not going to post a piccy for you all to laugh at! SO this is MKIV which I made this morning. It over rose a bit, and cracked a bit, but overall, I can hold my head up! Wish me a huge bunch of luck!!

| And the Winner is.... well, not me, actually! Well here's a piccy of the 3 entries for the marble cake class (mine is in the middle) with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd certificates.... ...the more observant of you will note that mine came third  But - hey - I am not in the least downhearted! You grapes were extremely helpful - and at least I could enter a cake that I was happy with thanks to your advice! The day as a whole was fabulous (although my veg didn't win prizes, they generally looked good) and Wellie and Trousers coming along was fantastic! They bought my a lovely goodie bag with all sorts of produce and things in to make me laugh - and I sent them back to the Royal Forest of Dean with......some marble cake!

| Sorry, but the winning cake didnt look very 'marbly' to me? Still, at least you had a go Hazel .... plenty of time to practice for next year, or are you sick of the sight of marble cake?! I'm impressed you had the confidence to enter, I wouldnt want anyone to judge my veg thats for sure hahaha!

| Well done for having a go! Yours looks good & marbled. I'm going to have a peer at the local horticultural show on Saturday and might steel myself for entering next year. After all, by the time I'm 70 I might be as good as some of the winners! Next year you'll sweep the board! Last edited by HappyMouffe; 20-08-2007 at 05:43 PM. Reason: speeling misteaks! |
