This sponsored discussion is now closed. Thank you to everyone who took part.

Baking can be a fun way to challenge yourself, spend time with your children, and impress everyone at the birthday party. But baking could also be an inspired way to support a worthy cause.

As an Official Sponsor of this year’s Macmillan Coffee Morning, Betty Crocker is inviting you to rise to the occasion and whip up some support for Macmillan’s campaign to help people living with cancer. Regardless of your baking skills, Betty Crocker could help you whip up beautiful and delicious cakes*. That’s why, Betty Crocker would love you to share a picture of the bakes that you’ve made with your family in support of <a class="break-all" href="https://coffee.macmillan.org.uk/?utm_source=www.mumsnet.com/&utm_medium=partner%20&utm_campaign=b_c_partner_wbcm_signup&utm_content=b_c_mumsnet_sponsoreddiscussion" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Macmillan’s Coffee Morning.

Here’s what Betty Crocker has to say: “This year, Betty Crocker and Macmillan Cancer Support have joined forces to encourage the nation to do whatever it takes to get involved with Macmillan Coffee Morning 2020.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Macmillan needs your support now more than ever to enable to them to continue to provide vital support for people living with and affected by cancer in the UK. Betty Crocker is an Official Sponsor of Macmillan’s Coffee Morning happening this September and you can help too.

The official date for Macmillan’s Coffee Morning is Friday 25 September, but you can take part whenever suits you best.

This is my diary free Black Forest Gateau. There's no recipe for this as I just winged it when I first came up with it.

Rainbow cake made with Betty Crocker frosting as it’s dairy free and one of our children has allergies. We think this is pretty appropriate for 2020!

Basbousa with a modern twist. Absolutely delicious and very unique.

Pecans on top just gave it an extra depth.
