After much work, hours of (mental) pain and lots of thought, we have now updated Eating Britain with a scrummy new look for all of you, our loyal readers.

Here’s a good tip for all you bakers out there…

When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won’t be any white mess on the outside of the cake.

This is a useful tip from Delia and works well.
