So, how did it go? Did you make it? My friend and I make this all the time as it is just the easiest.
I have a recipe for a pineapple cake too but haven't tried it yet it's

2 cups SR flour
1 cup sugar
450g can crushed pineapple

Mix flour and sugar. Add in pineapple including juice. Pour into lined tin and bake at gas 4 for 40 mins. as I say, I haven't tried this but it sounds nice.

I'm a bit late here, but I use the Be-ro book or website regularly and do the Victoria Sandwich recipe, the mixture has two eggs and can also be used for chocolate buns, cherry buns and butterfly buns. My 5 year old loves them all

Here you go:

basic cake

Cream together:
4oz butter/marg
4oz sugar

Beat in:
2 eggs

Fold in:
4oz SR flour

This is the backbone of all my cakes. The same quantity of all ingredients but half of eggs, ie: 4oz of everything = 2 eggs, 6oz of everything = 3 eggs, etc.

If you want lemon cake, add lemon zest to your mixture and put the juice onto your baked cake along with oodles of sugar, mmm

If you want coffee n walnut, add a desert spoon of coffee and a handful of crushed walnuts.

If you want coconut cake, add a handful of coconut to your mix and then spread warm jam onto your baked cake and top with desiccated coconut, mmm

If you want choc cake, add 1/2 oz of cocoa but only add 3 1/2 oz of SR flour (so it totals 4oz of dry ingredients)

If you want syrup sponge, just put oodles of syrup into your baking tin BEFORE you add your cake mix in. When serving, place the slice upside down so that syrup is at the top.

IMPORTANT:

If you own a microwave, ALL of the above recipes can be made in 2 mins!
I call it the 2oz, 2 min cake.
Just half all the quantities!!
Try it, it truly works. You may have to adjust to 3 mins if your microwave is not very powerful.
