griffo4, I'm sorry I can't help you - that recipe was c&p'd from TradeMeCooks and is actually trader125's recipe which I have never made. :-))

wingee, the recipe + this part "I make this all the time, made one on saturday" are ALL inside the quotation marks which indicates that it is a direct quote/copy and paste from the TradeMeCooks link that I gave with the recipe, so I can only repeat what I told griffo4 - I have never used that recipe to make that cake. :-))

wingee, if I was making that cake, yes I would use malt vinegar but if you don't have any then using whatever vinegar you do have would be ok I would think. :-))
