It sure is!

its not only famous but world famous.. baked it for my mum and sister when I visited them in Seychelles and Mauritius.

can I just ask - it says S?R flour then baking powder - is that right? usually only need baking powder with plain

yes it's right. Or at least, that's hoe I make it!

is it just normal sugar or caster sugar (I thought the latter is what is normally needed in baking)?

oohhh....maritius is paradise on earth....

forgot to say thank you....

Amani it really doesn't matter, I guess castor is preferable but I always just use normal.

thanks - will try....

Lemon Yoghurt Cake is lovely, especially with cream cheese icing (75gm soft butter, 125g cream cheese, juice and zest of 1 lemon, 2 cups icing sugar whizzed in processor)
