The best cake I have ever tasted was mango and coconut. I had a slice of it and a cup of jasmine tea watching the funny crested birds in the Chinese Peace Garden in Sydney.

I like cake with flavour. No point in having any otherwise.
A proper chocolate cake made with proper chocolate, frangipane, carrot cake (yumm), brownies (does that count ?)..............
Walnut, Chocolate, Carrot, Banana, Ginger, Jamaican Rum Cake any of those, cake needs to be heavy,dense and packing flavour, none of those 20p supermarket airy specimens for me.
I guess maybe chocolate fudge?
But that does a huge disserive to lemon drizzle and carrot cake. I also love fruit cake wih marzipan and icing. And yumyums. And Millionaire's Shortbread. And Brownies. And chocolate orange cake. And even a good old Victoria spounge and rhubarb and custard swiss rolls. And lemon meirngue cake. And cherry bakewells. And scones.
I just adore all cake really. Can't think of one I don't like.
Actually I think my most favourite cake of all is a real good birthday cake with buttercream. MMMMM

Hope this works - never done this before!!
Worked in the factory of a well known cake manufacturer(night shift) many years ago. One night the cleaners did not turn up and as a lowly student I was put on cleaning the Battenburg line.
there are some very yummy iced buns with raspberry filled jam from M&S.. Someone goes to get a pck from work..very tasty indeedy ..Only small about 6 in them for 99p
Love it. Tastes amazing. If you're on a diet, forget it. It's extremely rich and I find it best covered in double cream. Just as well I only eat it about once a year, otherwise I'd have had a heart attack a while back.

I have never eaten it again ”
Well done it worked..
And welcome..
I can imagine the smell would have been overpowering, I had a summer job when I was a kid picking tomatoes, I will never never eat one again, and strangely enough I am now allergic to them (which helps with not eating them!)
