Cooking Cake!

I got volunteered to bake a cake for a colleague who's being promoted. I made an olive-oil peach upside-down cake.

What are your favorite cakes to make?

Grocery store - seriously, I'm a loser here. But my mother (Mya) used to make a lemon sheet cake, then poke the top with a fork before pouring a cooked sweet thin frosting that had grated lemon peel. It was elegant. Like Mya.

Being diabetic, I only have cake (and just a bite or two) on birthdays. Your cake looks absolutely deliscious!

I feel like @Daisys and Diamonds may have something to say on the subject of cakes. Am I right?

Mine Wifey doesn't make me cakes anymore since my diabetes got bad and she also has it. Both under control thankfully! It eliminates a lot of cake however :{
Here is a German chocolate cake she made around 2010.
One of my favorite cakes ever!

I only make one recipe in two different formats, a 5min Madeira cake with added chopped placed cherries and white chocolate chips, finished with a drizzle of icing sugar and glitter sugar or sprinkles, in either 1lb loaf or as fairy cupcakes.

Back in the 1970s, I often made a cake in a Bundt pan for my family that was the last word in 70s: boxed yellow cake mix, package of instant vanilla pudding, eggs, and lots of poppyseeds. My brothers, ever hopeful, called it opium cake.

It was really pretty good for mix up packages with eggs. Convenience foods, sigh.

i havnt baked in 3 plus years since i went to work at the bakery
also my oven isnt the greatest
but i do male a nice banana peacan and carrot cake that iis heavy on cinnamon so i cant see the carrot !
and durring the pandemic i make the UK's lemon drizzle cake which i found by googerling what can i do with lots of lemons ! it must have been after we were able to get flour (shortage of flour bags held the country to randsom) and baking powder

i learnt to use wholemwel flour -you can use 1/3 brown to any white four recepie but you have to sift it 3 times and i got the last box of cream of tata in the shop to use with baking soda, i had been using lemon juice
and i was making bear bread as it didnt need yeast, that was quite nice but not a cake !!
