Lemon drizzle is probably one of the UK’s all time favourite cake toppings. Zesty and moist, it really is a winner whether cooked in a loaf tin or, as in this recipe by MaryBerry, as a traybake
It's so easy to make oneusingMaryBerry'sall-in-onetraybake recipe. The last time someone asked me to make a Victoria sponge I used the same method just baking it in two sponge tinsinstead of a tray and then layering with strawberry jam and double cream sweetened with a little icing sugar
I'm not a huge fan of MaryBerry, and my views on the whole GBBO caravan have already been documented - I wouldn't know exactly what happened in recent episodes, because I'm not watching the latest series, but I'd just like to say that the suggestion of 'naughty editing' by the BBC to make more out of the Baked Alaska issue than was there, painting a darker picture of the actions of one of the contestants, only goes to convince me that I'm right, and this show is not really much better than Jeremy Kyle

I had a browse of the Baking Mad website and decided that, in light of us allbeingin the grips of Great British Bake Off fever, I wanted to try one of the MaryBerry cakes that are featured on there
Signed book from Mary – one for an overallwinner. I'm really not keen on this in-between time between Christmas and New Year - I hate not knowing what day it is for a start, which definitely doesn't suit someone that thrives on routine and order like I do

), break into the pud and hope for a sauce that maryberry herself would be proud of. you'll have to forgive me on being late on the scene, my oven broke this week so allbaking had been put on hold
