    I've just made a cake posted by another mse member weezl74. It contains ground almonds and olive oil and its absolutely delicious. :drool:

    I have children so I have an endless supply of cake recipes and the like. :j

    So when/If you do fancy making one you'd like to eat yourself you'll have to put me to the test. :whistle:

    I am allergic to red fruits.. they bring me out in a rash. I don't like dried fruits of any kind. I can't eat bananas, avacado or kiwi fruit (part of my latex allergy)

    Toffee.. chocolate.. plain sponge.. fudge..

    I make plain scones for myself sometimes. I make myself biscuits and flapjacks occasionally.


    Hi pigpen

    What about oranges can you eat them as you could try my orange and ricotta scones which are scrumptious.

    Please can you either post or PM your Christmas cake recipe - i might try one for the first time, and also your carrot cake it ooks lovely.

    And I dont suppose I qualify but have made the following - Cherry cake for the kids, an apple pie especially for OH as no-one else likes it so I dont normally make it, and Gluten Free Banana and Walnut cakes for ME :rotfl:
