Asda does an 8" x 10" chocolate sponge cake for £8.86.Its actually what they use as the "photo cakes" but im sure it will do the job. Comes on a gold cake board and a red ribbon round it.

Kaka...great idea, but too fiddly as i have to do it myself...would probably be too nervous on the day and knock them over or something! lol. I will definately make one for birthdays etc though! xxxx

Mely

Northern...thats a definate option ! I really would like a chocolate one so ill pop into ASDA and have a look at the one you mentioned....sounds promising! xxxx

Northern...just a thought...do you know if they do bigger sizes(serves 15)? There isnt an ASDA too near here for me to look. But i can go when i go into town.

we got ours from www.fancifulcakes.co.uk they are a home run business in east sussex.

lots of people make up their own using marks and spencers cake.

our friends had a cake stand and made their own fairy cakes which was nice

Mely

Thanks freebie... how much was your cake? xxxx

Not in the chocolate they dont. Only in the plain sponge. I think that 1s about 15" x 10" for £14.97.

I would say the normal size should be big enough if its for 15 people.

I don't know how cheap they are but Druckers do some fantastic chocolate cakes. I think they feliver. It might be worth a look.

Hello!
I have the easiest recipe in the world for chocolate cake. Easy in the way that it takes 1 bowl to mix, one pan to bake and it ALWAYS rises. If you live anywhere near the north east I'd gladly make you one and put you some plain buttercream/icing on.
If you want the recipe let me know and I'll scan it in and email it.

oh and it freezes for up to three months undecorated.
