Pretty much everything I eat is roasted (Unless it's pasta n sauce). I pick whatever I fancy having, plonk it on an oven tray, squirt it with spray oil, then put it in the oven until its hot and looks a bit brown round the edges. Sometimes I go mad and sprinkle a random selection of dried herbs on the top.

I'm a shit cook at the best of times but I accidentally washed the markings off my oven a few years ago so all recipes/instructions are immaterial now anyway.

Oh, I know that, Maryz. [busmile] I bought some cranberry and orange ones thinking "hmm, they look naice". I don't like 'normal' ones, so I thought I'd give one of those a whirl.

Not. DH and DS demolished the lot Friday afternoon. Gits.

And the chocolate ones ? They look normal sized on the ads, you know, like you expect a bun to be ?

Feckin' diddy things they are. 9 in a pack. I think 3 probably equates to one.

As I said, a swizz. [bugrin]

No Shame at all. I'm rather impressed.

I'm a mediocre baker. But agreed to to the cake as my lovely friend is the sort who would buy the ingredients switch on the oven, then run away screaming till she found Gin.

She doesn't particularly cook but is a marvellous guest as will eat anything.

MrsVamos · 30/03/2013 22:18

I don't make cakes because I can't be arsed.

And the M&S one's are lovely.

We only ever defected once, with a Tesco Willy Wonka cake.

As with Maryz, there was nearly a riot. Not worth the hassle.

I must just add, has anyone else been completely and utterly fooled by the M&S advert for their chocolate with spices and orange 'hot cross' buns ?

What a swizz.

MadameDefarge · 30/03/2013 22:13

I've made one cake in my 33 years. It did not go well, hence there has only ever been one.

Plus it was all quite pointless as XH is diabetic so it was just me and the crap cake.

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 30/03/2013 22:03

LaQ, not even one? Ever?

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 30/03/2013 22:03

For her son, the Colin was for her son.

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 30/03/2013 22:02

I spoke to a lovely Lady in M&S once who was buying a Colin. She explained that since he was 4 he insisted on a Colin Cake every year no excuses. He was 26 Grin

RandallPinkFloyd · 30/03/2013 22:01

I have the Colin the caterpillar! My Nanna bought it me for Easter.

Told you she was lovely Grin

MadameDefarge · 30/03/2013 22:00

yeah. but your inadequacy means spondoolies for the rest of us! win win! you don't have to worry about bloody sponges rising, and we get to mess around and make money. huzzah!

HotCrossWeaselInSinisterBonnet · 30/03/2013 22:00

No. I'm not a cake printer. We did tshirts, swethirts etc jewellery, number plates, mugs, dog tags. Loads of stuff.
