I'm doing a motherfucking arctic roll! lemon meringue fucking ice cream engulfed in ginger sponge. get the fuck in!

I'm going to put it in you.

this thread is making me hungry

You getting ice cream there on a bike eh Josh... this i gotta see!

I have lost my irish Aprical and Almond cake recipie.. fking disaster that was a clear winner. you losers would have been crying in your sponges when i released that beauty.. this is an epic failure of biblical proportions!

Sorry Slag, but my heart pumps purple p*ss for you in sympathy - I can't get my grandfather's old baking book sent from the US in time. Over 30 years of baking knowledge and hand written notes along with some epic sweet bread recipes. Will have to resort to memory. I am screwed.

baking on a ration.. was this before the invention of sugar??

Of course not. England invented sugar before founding Americaland. We stole the idea and used it annoy the French. Everybody knows that.

I'm seriously looking forward to trying a bit of Guinness cake =D

Aussies invented chickens though

Aussies invented chickens though

Nope. French Military project.

France have a military?

He is right you know.
The french needed a national animal that symbolised their courage and strength

They started the Chicken/Egg debate as a cover for stealing the egg technology from the English.

They then used that stolen technology to unleash the French pastry industry upon the world.

They say you learn something new everyday. Today's been like a week.

Oh no!!!

If you mention pastry, all of a sudden people will come in and derail the thread and it will become filled with images and chat about tasty treats! Its over!
