It's a MaryBerry recipe, and she calls it Best Ever Chocolate Fudge Cake. You could adapt this really easily, decorating it differently - what about doubling up on sponge tiers and icing, then covering with gold edible glitter (this is what I'm thinking for my daughter's birthday in August)
Very straightforward, chocolate sponge, chocolate ganache, and then white chocolate. In the tradition of several awesome camping birthdays we've been to, there's an element of everyone mucking in together to bring tonnes of booze salads, puddings and cakes

Sandwich the two traybake sponge layers together with vanilla buttercream and jam. My little boy recently celebrated his third birthday and I baked him his very own football game birthdaycake
Kate and I are looking for any type of cake, BUT, a Celebration Cake would be WONDERFUL, and there will be a PRIZE for the BEST cake recipe and post submitted, the prize is a copy of MaryBerry’s Ultimate Cake Book
A few weeks before the birthday party I did a practice run of the cake to get to grips with using fondant icing and the recipe I’d tried out – MaryBerry’s Madeira Cake – went down so well with everyone there was no question that I’d be using it for the real thing

I need to thank HRH MaryBerry for this recipe – It is one of my favourites of her, a Lemon Drizzle Cake but obviously amended to turn into an Orange Drizzle Cake
This week was Swiss rolls, MaryBerry’s cherry cake and miniature British classics. You then pour the rest of the batter over the top and cook the whole sponge
Hana baked this one from a cheesecake recipe by MaryBerry. I have baked (and eaten) quite a few in my time and one of my favourites has to be this White chocolate cheesecake with Raspberry coulis
Vanilla Sponge - adapted from MaryBerry's Baking Bible. Strawberry jam. Cut the sponge circle in half. The point is, being my birthday, I needed a birthdaycake
Put a slice of Sachertorte in the hands of a slim, classy octogenarian and what is there to worry about, after all if MaryBerry looks that good after a lifetime of baking then surely it can't be bad for you
I really wanted to get back into it after losing some confidence with it last year and so far I've made these MaryBerry biscuits a million times over the last month, my Easter Chocolate Cake for George's birthday, cookie dough buns and my vanilla sponge with caramel icing, it's just my favourite way to chill in the afternoon
