1980s or 1990s dairy diary recipe

[Recipehunter]

Hi.
I have been looking online for a recipe from my childhood but I've had no luck and I was wondering if someone here might be able to help.
I'm afraid my information is a bit vague, but I think the recipe I'm after is for a spiced Easter cake with white chocolate icing which was in a dairy diary from the 80s or 90s. Does anyone have a copy that they could let me have the recipe from? It was delicious and I'd love to make it to see if it loves up to my memories!

God that takes me right back! I still have some of my mums Dairy Diary books, although had a quick look and unfortunately no Spiced Easter cake recipe. I hope someone finds it for you!

Was it this book? I remember my Mum having it and I'm sure there was an Easter cake recipe in it

Thank you for looking @MermaidEyes

Im not sure it was in that one @TabithaTiger as my mum doesn't remember having that book. She does remember having the 90s version but it's not in there unfortunately.

I've checked the 93 and 94 dairy diaries I have and it's not in there unfortunately. Good luck!

I think they are still about? Drop them a line - you never know they might find it.

There may be an archive. Try contacting them through their website

Thank you all for checking and the advice. I will try and contact them

I’ve got the Dairy Diary Home Cookery book from the 90s. It has a recipe for a spiced cake in there but it’s sandwiched together with marzipan and lemon curd but the cake recipe might be similar?

I have checked my 1985 and 1989 diaries and can not see. 1985 has a spiced apple cake. I have two books, will check later.

This thread has inspired me to dig out my mum’s copy from 1968! The recipe isn’t in there but I’m having a lovely time going through it

My nan had this one! She's been gone many years now, thanks for the lovely memory 😊
