Battenburg

[Jamie Lewis]

Isn't it just wrong?

[TommyC]

Yes, it is.. It's BATTENBERG.

[IndieSinger]

Either way, I hate it, 'cause I hate marzipan. But I love the centre cakey-ness! Which I why I adore Angel Cake... mmm scrape out all the fluffy-mallowey goodness...

[Greedyfly]

I totally agree

[Postie]

Indie, you're weird, how on earth can anyone hate marzipan?

[Jamie Lewis]

I'm with Indie - marzipan is the devil's work.

[sft42]

The evilness of it is almost unspeakable....a devil cake.....just like neopolitan ice cream it's just plain wrong.

[Jamie Lewis]

I'm with you on that one sft42. However artic roll I'm quite a fan of.

[beale]

Easy on the Battenberg. The marzipan makes the fluffy sponge goodness seem all the sweeter.

[Moonhead]

Battenburg is hideous, mainly because of the marzipan. So is Neopolitan ice cream and swiss roll too. :)

I'm another of the "marzipan is disgusting" ranks. There's nothing wrong with the gooey middle though. Now if they replaced the marzipan with chocolate.........

[Smiffy]

Battenberg cake is disgusting; horribly coloured sponge covered with what must be the most revolting substance known to mankind - marzipan. Why would anyone want to eat Battenberg when they could have a Jaffa Cake? Or even a Jaffa Cake mini roll?

[rinkytink]

What's yellow and swings from cake to cake?

[rinkytink]

Oh well. That didn't work !!

Tarzipan by the way !

[Jamie Lewis]

What's yellow and flys directly into WW2 battleships - kamikazepan.

[indiesinger]

What's white and transports goods? A Ford Transit Van.

Err... sorry, that's shit.
