Zed42 I've got a nice recipe for Jamaican Ginger Cake if you want to make that for your coffee morning. It's really easy to make, and has some ordinary ingredients in it that you may have around the house already. It's even better after a couple of days, as it gets stickier, so you can make it in advance.
Ooh, that sounds gorgeous tooI won't make that this time, but may just put that on the list for next week, as I just love jamaica ginger cake with lashings of butter
