COOKING TIPS

You do not have to be stressed at Christmas if the idea of cooking for family and friends is just all to much you can buy everything you need at most supermarkets, just pop in the oven no preparation sit back and enjoy a glass of champagne (you can either ban all from your kitchen so they think your amazing, or tell them that it all comes from whichever store you choose so you could spend more time with them. NO SHAME IN THAT.

Whole herbs and spices last longer than crushed or ground versions

Test freshness of herbs by moving some around in your hand and sniffing to see if spice gives off flavorful aroma

Generally speaking 1 cup fresh herbs = 1/3 cup dried as the dried spices have more intense flavor

Decorating your cake

use gingerbread Christmas trees, a house and hearts (you’ll need about 15 hearts for the outside). To decorate, mix 300g fondant icing sugar with enough water to make a thick icing, transfer to a piping bag fitted with a fine nozzle. Decorate however you like, then leave to dry. Place the trees and house on top of the cake and push the hearts into the icing.

Only one tin?

If you have just 1 x 20cm cake tin, you can easily divide the cake mixture into three and bake the sponges in batches. Work in metric measurements as they are easier to scale down for this recipe, and write the new measurements out before you start, so you don’t get mixed up halfway through.
