A friend asked for my chocolate cake recipe to make her son's birthday cake. When I arrived at the party,a picnic,I was astounded to find a flat,black cake in a roasting tin. Embarrassed,I tried to distance myself from the cake,but my friend smugly declared that she'd had a stress-free morning,before casually slathering the cake with icing. It was delicious,served all 20 of us neatly,and had a great cake-to-icing ratio. Traybakes – I'm a convert.
