Golden Syrup Cake
Golden Syrup Cake
Happy New Year! Im back from a long break and its quite difficult to get back into the swing of things. Ive not actually felt like baking which does happen from time to time. However, I wanted to bake something for our AlphaBakes challenge this month so I chose a simple recipe from BBC Good Food. Its a golden syrup cake which is really simple to make and tastes absolutely delicious! Ive had it on its own, with creme fraiche and with ice cream and they are all equally good. My colleagues were extremely happy as theyve been without cake for quite a few weeks! The cake smells of golden syrup and you can really taste it in the cake as its the main ingredient. Its a lovely moist cake with a crispy topping. A definite winner!
Im sending this to AlphaBakes hosted by myself this month and Caroline from Caroline Makes on alternate months. The letter this month is G for Golden syrup.

ready to go in the oven - my batter was still a bit lumpy but it turned out ok in the end!

Golden Syrup Cupcakes
Golden Syrup Cupcakes
Quick post today for simple golden syrup cupcakes. I used the recipe on the Lyles Golden Syrup website and it turned out beautifully. Its a really quick mix all in one recipe and you can really taste the golden syrup. Sometimes simple is best and this is one of those times. It would be perfect for the festive season esepcially with a bit of sparkle and glitter!
Im sending it to the Tea Time Treats Table hosted by Karen from Lavender and Lovage and Jane from The Hedgecombers. The theme this month is glitter, sprinkles, candles and shiny stuff!
Its also perfect for Treat Petite hosted by Kat from the Baking Explorer and Stuart from Cakeyboi. The theme this month is Christmas.
I used the recipe from Lyles Golden syrup website. The recipe makes 6 large cupcakes as shown but will probably make 12 mini cakes. These were so good Ive actually made 36 cupcakes so far and counting.
