If I hadn't been constrained by the show requirements I'd have added
a little vanilla essence to the sponge.

But ... I won :-)

The three things I entered: victoria sandwich, bread, and sloe gin
all won first place in their class. Next year I'm going to do so
much baking that I'll try to win the cup for most points won in
classes in the baking category.

Cheers,

Dumbledad.





Congratulations!

The sponge recipe does sound like they've stripped it down to the very
basics though. Still I guess that doesn't matter too much since everyone's
creative flair is constrained by the same rules - vanilla essence does sound
like it would be a good addition though.
