Home made if possible, any bakery product will do.
Goes away licking lips in anticipation.
flip - that must have taken a while?
Noel Edmonds: What is Cake? Well, it has an active ingredient which is a dangerous psychoactive compound known as dimesmeric andersonphosphate. It stimulates the part of the brain called Shatner's Bassoon. And that's the bit of the brain that deals with time perception. So, a second feels like a month. Well, it almost sounds like fun...unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street straight in front of a tram. He thought he'd got a month to cross the street.
Vaguely OT the God CM on the danger drug Cake

S'not bad, considering I messed up the temperature/cooking time (new fan oven so still experimenting) & used artifically coloured cherries.
these are all home-made.. In my kitchen.. I'm cheating though 'cos Mrs Yunki does it for a living..

I have to go to this magical Inschriach Nursery!
redthunder - Greggs makes me feel sick after all the gorgeousness of the home made stuff above.
Oh my god bunnyhop you cannot tell me not to come to this thread and seriously not look 🙁 now I want cake. Really. Badly. In particular druidh's cheesecake with the ice-cream, but with two scoops.
I know, I just want everything too.
Can't decide between rocketdog's lemon meringues or Yunki's wife's chocolate cake.
That McMoonter one with the raspberries looks my kinda thing. Is the cream that does it... nom nom nom. FFS I'm trying my wedding dress on tomorrow to sort out bouquet colours etc and now I'm gonna have to go buy a bloody cake to have first. I BLAME YOU BUNNY HOP!!!
You lot are clearly amateurs, check this out:

Yep that might be the case, but there still loads better than the shop bought pap you can buy.
This thread is not complete without the rabbit with the cake on its head. Anyone?
There you go . . .
Funnilly enough I found it [url= http://www.buzzfeed.com/bigcrush/the-webs-most-epic-pancakes ]here[/url] . . . pancake anyone?
I killed the site trying to post that... 
I know you won't believe it is an amateur attempt but I made this giraffe cake (was just a bit short on colours) myself! Amazingly it tasted even better than it looked! 🙂
A sophisticated blend of sponge, buttercream icing, jam and ready coloured icing, as well as my obvious talent...

Christmas cake made by my amazing mum; normally manage to keep this until at least February and would have made it to March if it wasn't for this thread...
Tracker 1972 - I'm glad you said that was a giraffe, the colouring had me confused 🙂
More please, you're all so talented.
that piece of Red Velvet cake on page 2 of hummerlicious' link is a fine looking example of a very desirable piece of niche-tastic baking..
nomnomnom
Thanks, mamadirt and zippy! Cheered us up after a bad day in the shops! 🙂
I've just tried Chocolate Beer cake. You'd think the holy grail of cakes? was disappointing.

Chocolate guiness cake I made the other weekend - it didnt last long 🙂 [No idea where the pic went... its here http://twitpic.com/3uhequ ]
No_Discerning_taste, we may (cough) be round to see you tomorrow 😉
Hummerlicious - there are just too many cakes to look at on your page, over 700, they all look exceedingly scrummy.
Hmm, I think that was possibly what I had today Domino, but I bet yours was nicer, this just tasted a bit stale. The toffe millionaires cake otoh was lovely.

my wife's creation
Yes, it's a miracle I'm not the size of a house, I should stop photographing them really!
Oh and the red velvet lushness is from Parklife in Worthing, purveyors of cakey heaven 🙂
Is Trifle allowed in on a cake thread? Mama Moonter made this with home made sponges, home made egg custard, pears, candied ginger and syrup, sherry, ground almonds, apricot jam, topped with whipped cream, toasted almonds and glace cherries.
Good job she only makes it once a year! Calorietastic.
Of course trifle is allowed. A teeny bit of trifle can make a person's day.
Torminalis - Is that lemon curd? Gorgeous.
Curd, zest, juice. As lemony as a lemony thing. I feel like I am cheating as this was done ages ago... have promised my mother one though so I may go home and break out the baking gear!
Great thread! Mrs Yunki is very talented!
Try these - wife makes them for a "living"

Still no bike cake for me but I live in hope!
Our office kitchen had three top-notch home made cakes earlier, not one hours ago, to celebrate a colleagues birthday.
Sadly, its all gone now, so no picture. 🙁
Delicious.

Many thanks to Dominio for suggesting this, it's awesome! You might spy some almond squares hiding in the corner (uncut).
Not gunna last long, as it gotta be eaten up, as the icing has double cream in it.
That guinness cake was LOVELY and didn't last long...

Finally got to the Inshriach cake shop today. It fully lived up the expectations that this thread had set, in fact it exceeded expectations as nobody had mentioned the array of birdfeeders outside - we had a wonderful cake while watching hundreds of birds including bramblings and woodpeckers. you may not care but I thought it was wonderful.
forgot to mention there was about 20cm of snow on the road and still people managed to get to the cafe!
just another bump to make you scrabble to the snack machine.. or plan something for later...

I just spotted you made the Chocolate Guiness cake Z1ppy. Glad you gave it a try... its very more-ish. I may just need to remake it this weekend.
g/f says sponges are boring, but she loved that guiness cake, so rich and moist... MMMMMmmmmmm
