This sounded so good I just had to make it!! I followed the recipe but it was absolutely AWFUL!! It makes a very large cake but I can tell you it went into the trash can.

This is WONDERFUL, Dale, just like you! I completed my last Information Technology(Masters) examination today and in honour of that, I've baked this cake today!:) I only had a little problem with the conversion of 125gm. of melted butter. I used a little over half a cup of margarine as a substitute for butter. This cake is a big one, come out a beautiful mild yellow colour, and I can't wait to cut it in the evening! There were a few crumbs that I took a bite of, and loved the flavour! Thanks again! While I baked this, somehow it seemed to make my parrot very happy - he kept chirping away and seems delighted with this cake:) Thanks for a GREAT cake! I wish you could join in my fun!!
