13 days of cake

 
So far for my 31 Days of Cake I have cooked new cakes, cakes  that I have never baked before. But todays cake I have made before several years ago when I had some new 'Mum' friends over that I wanted to impressed so I broke out a Donna Hay recipe but a table cloth on the table and pretended that I was we bit fancy.

I really like these Honey Jumble Cakes and can't remember why I haven't made them in so long they are easy, cheap and yum. I especially love the honey smell the fills the kitchen while these are baking. I don't think that the icing is essential with these cakes they are really yummy straight from the oven. All iced the are very sweet cakes probably a bit too sweet for some but I have a big sweet tooth so I loved it. I think these cakes are perfect for afternoon tea when you want to look a little smug.
