Tiger Avon cake
This is a bit random but I thought people on here would appreciate it. It was my 21st yesterday and My cake was a almost perfect replica look of my
car. Look on my archive...

I notice that the cake is on an age-related plate.
Looks (gold) fishy to me.
What cake did you use as a donor?
Battenburg, Kendal Mint, Lemon Drizzle?
Or Carrot??
Carrot!! I ask you.
In a cake.
Honestly, they put carrot in a cake.
The old Carrot engine Cake versus Battenburg engine Cake debate. Lets not get started on that one!
How many major components did you transfer over from the donor?
I've read that if you use the jam and cream then you can use your own decorations.
Then of course you must eat the rest of the donor.
If you use enough new ingredients the Cake Licensing Authority can issue a new sell-by date if you pass the CAT test. (Cake Acceptability Test)
I tried this once and built an Upside Down three wheeler but I failed 'cos the crust radius was undersize.
And they said my custard was runny!
Really!!
And you can't get away with trifle sponges either.
Or Bakewell tart.
Am I mistaken or are they Pontefract wheels on your Tiger??
I've also heard that some unscrupulous cake builders have been known to use the identification of a previously built cake using only the wrapper
and eating the original.
So take heed cake fans, check the ingredients thoroughly and take a good look at the builder.
Is he or she wearing a nice clean apron?
Can you see empty flour bags and eggshells lying about?
Or could the car have been made from one of those "Cake in a box" abominations.
Does the seller have microwave cake mix under his fingernails?
If the make on the V5 is "VIOTA" then run a mile???

Bit of a slack period in the Regimental kitchen.
The last batch of our speciality "Jordan Tarts" has gone tits-up and nearly all eleven "England Soccer Trifles" have turned
out to have too much whine in them.
On top of that I had to reprimand Private Cornflour this morning. Got his fingers stuck in the egg beater.
Had to put her on a charge as well!

Im shocked to see the response from this cake, especially from SPYDER... Maybe I should try and get one done off that old advert where the entire car
was made out of cake....

BEC or CEC ??
Battenburg or Carrot?
BEC...... a lightweight cake, a bit too spicy for some. The rush of flavour is addictive and overwhelming the first time you taste it, but can become
tiresome according to some cake aficionados.
"Flavour of the month" ????
CEC......heavier on the palate but with a broader spectrum of taste. Can be just as spicy if the right ingredients are used but that can make it more
expensive to bake.
"Pipe, slippers, CEC" ????
