Cakes offer a dizzying range of recipes for every possible occasion. The perfection of a simple sponge will delight you, while cheesecakes are arrayed in all their creamy glory, and the full gamut of chocolate cakes are bound to tempt. Most of the recipes use store-cupboard ingredients, so it's easy to make something if you have a cake craving, and instructions are easy as pie (or cake) to follow. So tie up your apron and take out the mixing bowls. Right now, it's just you, a recipe and the marvelous cake to come.
