    I hope you haven't thrown the cake mixture out as I am convinced that something can be salvaged from it.

    As for the other ingredients, if they are still sealed they'll keep. I would hold onto them / use it to make flapjacks / throw them into the next plain cake mixture you make (use less sugar though).

    Hope is not a strategy :D...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!

    You could try Recipe Puppy, it's a search site that suggests recipes for ingredients you have.

  • I'm a great fan of Mary Berry and find her recipes clear and easy to follow. But did find that I have an over zealous fan assisted oven and had to take that into account when baking her recipes as my first attempt at her carrot cake was very dried out and chocolate brownies were over done.

    As above is there nothing you can salvage from the bake?
