Great to hear you're mixing along there Barry - just about everything tastes better with a dollop of cream  ;D ;D

My mother used to make a frosting with margarine, icing sugar and lemon juice and zest - that would be dairy-free if you need it to be.

I found a chunk of this in the freezer last week (can't believe I made it back in July!) - it defrosted very well in a low oven, and went very nicely with double cream. I'm not sure how well regular cake defrosts, but this was just as good as when freshly-baked :)

This looks great, could I use store bought g.f flour such as orgran or white wings (i don't have gluten free cook book yet).

of course.

GF flour mix is just 1/3 each maize / corn flour, rice flour and tapioca starch with a teaspoonful of potato flour (which i rarely use)
