[Closed] Favourite post-ride cake?

carrot

Lemon drizzle and Carrot as above, also partial to Jamaican ginger cake.

Lardy Cake or Scones

The carrot cake at FoD use to be good.

does there have to be any 'healthy' element to it?
Is that "marble and lemon drizzle" one or two cakes?

Kinda finding Whoopie pies interesting at the moment (been reading the hummingbird bakery cookbook), though I need to make smaller ones though (got 4 when I should have had 8...).
Muffin are always easy and lovely, [url= http://www.rivercottage.net/recipes/lemon-curd-marble-muffins/p:2/ ]lemon curd one by Hugh next[/url] or maybe just some scones...

Nigella's [url= http://wookieecookie.wordpress.com/2010/09/22/blondies-nigella-style/ ]oat Blondies[/url] Kinda healthy... as it has oats in (just ignore the condensed milk content 😉 ) - oh and the picture make it look kinda foul, ignore it.

My ultimate post ride cake would be Key Lime Pie, orgasm of oral ecstasy. 😉

Mrs Carbon just created a Lime Drizzle cake for a change - amazing.

and the ultimate never fail carrot cake is from hummingbird, 3 layers (I usually reduce it to two, as thats big enough)

though Domino's suggestion, from a couple of weeks back, of Nigella [url= http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/chocolate-guinness-cake-3086 ]Guiness cake[/url] is fricken fantasic.. if slightly more-ish

MM, actually got that on my todo list.. The Hairy bikers version, which is the only one I've seen with meringue ontop...saying that, is that meringue or cream?

And if you are lucky enough to live in Dorset, their famous apple cake ain't exactly a chore to eat. MM Mmm Mmmmmmmmm

Cheese cake (strawberry ideally) or a Tart Citron (does that count 😕 )

excellent, thanks...

Coffee & Walnut cake.....always hits the spot!

+1 on cheesecake, nom nom nom!! 🙂

carrot

Millionaires shortbread, if that's a cake?

Accompanied by a mug of tea or hot choc for dipping.

anything from the Cake Hotel in Maribor. Just pick the next cake off the cake menu each day 🙂 And if it's hot, then pick the next icecream off the icecream menu too 🙂

Any kind of cake is good in my eyes. Need to have a well brewed cup of Yorkshire tea with it with just a splash of milk. Or if its really hot, a cold can of Stella 4.

my other half makes an ace sticky toffee, banana and pecan number..

failing that.. a Patisserie Express lemon and lime cheesecake..

A moist fruit cake for preference but my wife does a very nice pineapple upside down cake which finished off loweys walna scar route a couple years ago perfectly. The planets aligned, perfect weather, route, company and post ride refuel, magic.
Other memorable refuels are millionaire shortbread, bakewell tart, rocky road (is that still cake?) and paradise slice.

Most cakes will do at a push except, and I can't overstate this enough, [i]"cake"[/i] that includes vegetables! 😈

black treacle flapjack. 🙂

Victoria Sponge

Banana bread. Om.

You don't see many roadies stuffing thier faces with cake, why is this?

lemon medera 🙂

Date & Walnut Cake from Fairholmes Cafe. Niccccce!

Although I'm tempted to drive down to Mental Mickeys in Dorset for Apple Cake and pop in at stumpy01s for a slice of Coffee & Walnut on the way back 🙂

millionaire shortbread

excellent idea... 🙂

A sort of pork cake in a shortcrust pastry case would be my favourite 🙂

and HP sauce

Perhaps a slice of Gateaux StHonoré or maybe a little Buchette Delice or even a couple of Petite Choux Chantilly. Maybe a little Flan.

And a lion bar.

Some 'Bara Brith' with plenty of butter and a big mug of Coffee, at the little cafe half way round the Beast at CyB so technically it's my favourite Mid-ride snack

Something really really heavy. Or dense brownies.

Space. But not too much
