There is also a version using gingerale instead of orange juice.

The cake is huge, though my nan was one of 10 children. The cake is soo heavy! Definatly could feed an army.

Yep this recipe has been around for years - you can use any liquid you like from coffee to flavoured tea, to coconut milk to any juice or simply water and rum mixed :)

It has the drawback that is goes stale quicker than other cakes so bake it not too long before using. As it has no fat in it either it will not keep well and I have heard people say when they unwrapped theirs it was mouldy under the tinfoil.

Great for a last minute cake if you run out.
