Does anyone know what temp you bake Marslady LDC at?

[loucee]

Title says it all, I followed the recipe but cant see what temp to cook it at!

I use my mother's tried-and-tested "bung it in at 160c" method of cooking and take it out when it's done .

180 maybe??

Thanks SD

I used 160 as my fan oven is a bit too strong for 180 baking

oh MOM i'll go for the middle at settle at 170!

I keep cross posting! thanks Dizzy

Try here

gas mark 4 or 180. I had this problem too, as its not detailed on the recipe, but eventually found the temp when did a thread search.

oh, carmenere has linked to the recipe and its on it now .

Nope it is me who should be flier as I missed out the temp when I uploaded it.

its there now, which is great. I must go and make some now

what size tray does everone use, and how deep?

I've made it a few times at half quantities.

The other day I tried using full quantity and got my tsp and tblsp mixed up when it came to the baking powder, My cake oozed Ectoplasm out all over the oven

I called Ghostbusters!

Still think I need a different tray.. wonder if mine is a bit shallow for full quantity...

...and discuss!

I think my tray is 20 x 30 and deep - more of a tray bake than an over tray Klaw

I think mars herself uses a roasting tray, not sure of the size tbh. I will search it out.

don't forget to get unwaxed lemons for the grating of...

mine is only about 1" deep, and about 9 x 11"

I make mine in 2 loaf tins!

i have the recipe mousemat right here.
has been here over a year.
have made it once.
doh.

180 or gas 4.

I may try the two loaf tins soupy - thanks

I have to finish off the tray-bake that I did the other day first though

thanks for all your messages. I used 170 in the end for 45 mins but it was a bit dry (although it tasted fantastic so will definitely use the recipe again). I went wrong with my temp in the beginning and the tin was too deep.
Good idea SD, a loaf tin is ideal
