I'm not that good after all Suzanne :(
I put in baking powder instead of bicarb soda :P

I will just put lots of icing on and decorate it really nice so they don't notice.... ;D ;D ;D

At least it rose nicely for you. You could always chop off the dome, turn it upside down, ice it and no one would even know ;)

Yes, that's true ES and it was a lovely cake to make. I definitely prefer it over the ILB one :)
It's already been iced, decorated and nearly demolished, but I will try your suggestions next time I put in baking powder instead of bicarb soda ;D Luckily I managed to get a photo before it was mauled so I will upload it as soon as I can ;)

I ran out of the plain chocolate sprinkles so I had to do half of the two-tone sprinkles :-))

I made this last night to feed a hoard of teenagers that called in. DD has recently cut lactose from her diet so I subbed butter for rice bran oil, milk for lactose free milk and the cocoa powder for pure cacao powder. The cake seemed to take longer to cook than I expected but fortunately I had put it in a ring tin so it was ok. I didn't taste it but the kids said is was good and the texture looked good.

Just taken cup cakes and a round cake out of the oven, they rose very well, infact all have domed. Never had this before, but will just cut the dome off & eat it :) :P

I love this mix, and I find it keeps well & is more moist compared to the choc bimby's cake.
.........EAT CAKE!
