Caterpillars

I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a Colin the Caterpillar cake, or any of his trade-mark-skirting brethren. I don’t feel as though I’ve missed out of one of life’s great experiences, but it feels odd that public discourse is filled with appreciation for a product that is beyond my ken.

When it comes to factory-made supermarket cakes, I reckon Battenberg has the edge. My truth is that marzipan trumps icing.

McVitie's Jamaica Ginger Cake for me.

Especially as they don't use cinnamon in it so, I'm in no danger of killer migraines if I eat it.

But I am Good and don't buy it more than once or twice a year because I can get through a while cake by myself in no time.

Kate and Beth are fond of coffee cake, which is useful to me as I can’t abide the smell or taste of coffee, so the cake offers no temptation whatsoever.

Coffe cake is fabulous but not factory made. WHen I was dieting, I used t make Tom eat home made coffee cake so I could watch.
