Cake Auction

The youth at our church held a cake auction last night.  It was brilliant!  They raise about £400.  My favorite part of the evening was when our little legend No. 1 shouted a bid for £100 (it was supposed to be £3)!! 

I baked four delicious banana cakes with a recipe I found online :

But I used this frosting instead: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/6096/lemon-cream-cheese-icing.aspx

yummy yummy, they all sold for between £6 - £7.50!!  I was quite pleased with that :)

my giant tea cake was a disaster though!  I tried it twice but it didnt work either time.  The trouble I was having was the cling film got stuck in the chocolate once it was set! (I didnt want anyone to gag on a piece of cling film)! I got this recipe from:

So if anyone has any success with this please give me some tips!!

All in all it was great fun and a genius way of raising money! well done Dereham youth :)
