Reporting in to say I made the Cappucino Cake today - I don't really eat my own baking (I'm more of a savoury person) but the other half has already demolished about a quarter of it so it must be good!!
sorry I'm not sure what page it's on, probably near the start of the thread and it was really easy to make so I fully recommend it!

Cont..... Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C. Butter and line the bottom of a deep, round 20cm cake tin with greaseproof paper. Beat the first seven ingredients together in a large bowl (electric hand- beaters are best for this), until pale and thick. Using a large metal spoon, gently fold in the fruit until evenly combined.
Spoon the batter into the tin and bake for 50 mins-1 hr or until the cake is dark golden, springy to the touch and has shrunk away from the tin slightly. A skewer inserted into the centre will come out clean when it's ready. Cool completely before decorating. Will keep, wrapped in an airtight container or iced, for up to a week, or can be frozen un-iced for up to a month - defrost fully before decorating.

valentino - threads now last for a year after the last posting, so no need to bump.If no-one has posted on a thread for 12 months I think it's safe to assume that there's no interest!
