At February’s Newcastle Clandestine Cake Club, Sky TV filmed a
moving appeal for men to come forward and eat cake. The response was
overwhelming and an unprecedented 6 (SIX) men turned up to March’s event.
The cake ladies were ready and waiting: we had a candle-lit room and loads of
alcohol hidden inside the cakes. This month's theme was "Cakes with Beverages" and some
cakes contained an entire bottle of booze – special mention must go to Lauren’s
amazing Jamaican black rum cake.
There are now so many cakes at each event – tonight’s had 18 - that
it's impossible to try them all, so I went for Nelly's Shirley Temple cake
(read more here) Emily's lemonade cake, Lisa’s dandelion and burdock cake and
the aforementioned Jamaican black cake,
after which things went a bit blurry. I had made a coconut milk cake from Marian Keyes' new cookbook but it vanished into the night and never returned my calls. Luckily when
I baked the cake the mixture spilled into the centre of the bundt ring creating a
small, separate cake for me to enjoy at home. The technical term for this is
"cake win".
Thanks to Blackfriars restaurant for
allowing us to hold the event in their beautiful Banquet Hall. It claims to be
Britain's oldest dining room as it was a monks’ refectory in the 13th
century and today serves excellent food whether or not you've taken a vow of
chastity and silence. Thanks as ever to Lisa for organising the event. The Clandestine Cake Club now has over 60 clubs in the UK and
overseas - if you'd like to make new friends and eat a lot of cake, visit the
website to find your local cake club or to learn how to set one up.
Such a wonderful night! It was great to meet you and I absolutely ADORED your cake. I might have to find that recipe. I even managed to nab a slice to enjoy at home later on! Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteI found my wife cheating 7 months after our marriage, I started wondering why she was cheating on me with her Ex boyfriend. She filed a divorce and left home. I cried to my friend for help because I didn't want to lose her to him. My friend told me how lord Bubuza fixed his relationship with his spell after 2 years of breakup so I spoke to lord Bubuza for help via WhatsApp: +1 984 240 7211. He responded and said my wife will come back to me begging on her knees for forgiveness. I did as he instructed. It was exactly 24 hours after lord Bubuza finish casting the spell and my wife started calling me and begging me to forgive and accept her back, We are happy together now. Lord Bubuza is a GOD on Earth, he has brought happiness back to our home with his spell. Are you heartbroken? Contact him via WhatsApp: +1 984 240 7211 or email: lordbubuzamiraclework @ hotmail . com
ReplyDeleteI was so confused and devastated when my husband left me without a word, I needed him back desperately because I loved him so much. So a friend of mine introduced me to this powerful man who made her husband return home after 5 months of separation, so I contacted him and he promise that in less than 72 hours Axel will come back to me. After I did all he asked, my husband who had refused to speak with me called and started crying that he made a mistake by leaving home. I was happy because me and axel have been together since we were kids and leaving each other hurt both of us. Now i am happy because he is back home and everything is just perfect. If you have any relationship problem I will advise you to contact Dr Ilekhojie and get honest results. Below are his contact details message him on WhatsApp: +2348147400259 Email: gethelp05@gmail.com
