30cm Classic Christmas Cake
I always make Delia’s Christmas cake . I’m making my daughters wedding cake and thought I’d use Delia’s recipe I have her old complete cookery course book and she had a page for different size cakes
15cm, 23cm and 28cm I thought I’d make all three. My problem is finding the tins I can’t find a 28cm deep loose bottom cake tin. Can I adapt the recipe for a 30cm or do you have any advice please.
Any advice greatly received as I want it to be right. I’ve never had a failure with Delia.

Freezing Chocolate Beer Cake
Does the chocolate and beer cake once iced, freeze? nb. I don’t add walnuts - severe nut allergy - & it is delicious without!
Apple and Cider Cake without the cider!
Hello Lindsey I would like to make Delia's apple and cider cake, but don't use alcohol in cooking. Could you recommend a non-alcoholic sub here or would it be better to just to do another recipe?
Regards.
