OMG ! That Wholemeal Honey and Almond Cake !
You need me there to advise you on how to cook it! The tasting is the most important part! hahahahahahaha Just remember to change the cooking temp up! Watch as it can burn so have some baking paper to place over the top if looking as if its going to turn black.
Yip you can keep them in the freezer or the fridge if your going to be using them up sooner rather than later:) . . . . sneaks off to taste test it again!shhhhhhhh hehehehe
