Post by: iderf on May 06, 2011, 10:04:48 pm

while i was procrastinating... i found a cake recipe to make for mum.

http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Red-Velvet-Cake-with-Raspberries-and-Blueberries-108256

but i have no idea what to use as a substitute for cake flour (AU doesnt supply any)

You might be able to get some from a specialty store, but otherwise plain flour is okay, you just have to use less of it:

That cake looks awesome, BTW!

I recently made Guiness cupcakes. They sound weird but they are really tasty.

 Yes, they're a plausible indulgence, without being *too* ott
