I'm pretty sure monster knows this one, but I'd thought I'd thow it up here ( no pun intended :razz: )
An expat friend who has been getting into cake baking on a semi pro basis has been asked to make 'Yellow Cake' and needs to know what it is.
EDIT:
A quick google gives these two recipes:

seems heavy on the eggs and sugar ( :roll: ), compared to a Victoria Sponge (Which I make 1:1:1:1 by weight eggs flour butter sugar), also they add milk to make much more a batter. :o
Perhaps I'll try it out myself. :neutral:
It's bog standard yacky American sponge. Packet mixes galore.
(please don't)
who is this anyway? d'you think we should try that new fangled thing of speaking to one another?
;)
Your dinner's in the cat.
This made me laugh. I do know what this yellow cake is, but the picture that came to mind first was a concentrated uranium ore, also known, or once was known, as yellow cake.
