So, who wants to help ... to instaurate the cellar?

One coffee and pecan nut (I had no walnuts!) safely in the oven

Even smelling the mixture was a rich strong coffee scent

I hope so, Twellsy

From my vast experience, coffee cakes can promise so much, & fail to deliver.

Mine deliver as I think a weedy waft of a flavour isn’t right - I put a strong Indian coffee espresso in my coffee cake

I’m sure you do , Twellsy, it’s just that it seems to disappear in the baking process for many.

My friend with the Cafe says the same.

Eat a slice and stay awake for two days…

I’d rather keep coffee and cake separate. Get the coffee out of the way quickly…

If the cake does deliver a real punch of coffee flavour, you should be very pleased with yourself, Twellsy.

It does

And the Bull is quite happily looking forward to eating it tomorrow
When I bake it right - today I cooked it to be a liquid centre which oozed every drop of liquid over the worktop

Ach everyone has a disaster every so often…

Look at the alternatives, dere, and what do you get? Cavorting and graceless hoydens in bizarre, truncated skirts capitalising on the name of a popular fruit, that’s what.

I believe that I may have been a hoyden in my time (at times).

DS has had his second test for Covid-19, after one of his w#rk colleagues tested positive. Ugh.

Nowt wrong with a bit of hoydening per se.

Hope all will be well with DS.

Thank you Gus for the idea of coffee fondant

I was christening my new Bundt cake tin and it needs practice for timing and quantities

It won’t beat me though
