As a diabetic cakes are something that are off my daily diet; however I do love baking and cooking them for my family. With cakes there are just so many types to choose from and I was wondering just which type people enjoy the most. We have plain sponge cakes, or ones filled with jam and cream, rich fruit cake, scones - plain and fruit or served with lashings of jam and cream, or would it be cakes made with choux patry, like chocolate eclairs, or haw about pastries like cream slices or Danish pastries then there are meringues, ginger cake, pineapple upside down cakes - I could be here all day!! My favourite cake to make is meringue, because mine always turn out so nice, crispy on the outside with a soft fondant filling but my favourite to eat I think would be a yeast bun type cake like and iced bun,bath bun or Chelsea bun. Oh and I LOVE date and walnut cake!! How about you?

No date and walnut cake wouldn't cut it for me. I love all types of chocolate cakes. In fact the picture above of the cake looks delicious. I love Dark chocolate with buttercream icing and coconut all over it. I wanted to bake a chocolate cake for mother's day but everyone in my family is on a diet but me. So I decided not to bake one. However, now after seeing that picture I want a piece so bad and wished I had baked it anyway.

Hello Oldchem, My favorite cake is Black Forest. I like it covered with chocolate shavings and a lot of cherries inside.

My favorite cake is chocolate cake with peanut butter icing. I don't have a special reason for its being my favorite. It just is.

I've never had peanut butter icing but I can imagine that it would be very nice.
