Auntie Joan gives us a jar of her Orange Marmalade every year. We don’t eat Orange Marmalade, but I am very happy to receive it because her Orange Marmalade makes lovely cakes. ‘Orange Marmalade & Whisky Pound Cake’ is my favourite, but today I tried to make a rice cooker cake. It turned out a …
This is a quick and easy Sultana Bread. You can make with regular Self-Raising Flour and without Yeast. The texture is similar to the Cake, but not too sweet. Slightly softer batter seems to work better when cooked in a rice cooker. If you want to bake it in the oven, use less Milk. Makes …

Today I baked a Rum Raisin Pound Cake. And the cake brought back a wonderful memory of the Japanese Chocolate called ‘Rummy.’ It is certainly a very alcoholic Chocolate that contains Rum-steeped Raisins and Chocolate Ganache inside. I can’t remember when was the last time I ate it. I decided to coat the cake with …
