This afternoon I made the 'half syn roulade' for us to gorge ourselves on this evening. My success at this week's group means we needed something to celebrate, right?! (Any excuse will do, for cake. Any. Excuse. At. All.)
It's got a strange texture, and I can't decide if that's because I did something wrong or if it's because it's not really a cake at all. I decided against lemon because I didn't want to alter the recipe on my first attempt, as I wasn't sure that I knew how to fix it if I accidentally made it too wet - I know how to solve that on a normal cake, but not a nearly syn free one! (Fun fact: the only syn value in the cake comes from a teaspoon full of baking powder. I wonder why baking powder has a value?)
It's tasty though. We'll try lemon tomorrow ;)
