It is! Even I’ve had a bit and I don’t normally like cake but I love ginger and this is so gingery I had to try, and I enjoyed it. The smell stopped us in our tracks as we walked round the market.

No treacle in that one though. I know less than nothing about baking cakes, but Ian did say his was made with proper black treacle - hence the stickiness, I guess.

My mother used to make a ginger cake that involved molasses. I never had the recipe, though, so I haven’t tasted it for many years.

Mam used to make gingerbread loaf using treacle. If it burnt (slightly) I would cut off and eat those bits. Yum.

I refer you to an early cellar where I provided Rachel Allen’s sticky gingerbread recipe. I still think that takes some beating. Don’t think tooo hard about the sugar content.

If treacle is the key, this one looks good (and I see it’s from a Ballymaloe alumna!)
