Sticky Toffee Pudding Cake Fingers FOR THE PUDDING 100g dried stoned dates finely chopped 100g raisins - finely chopped 50g dried figs - finely chopped 175ml boiling water plus a dash of brandy if desired 1 tsp vanilla extract 175g self-raising flour 2 large, free-range eggs 1 teaspoon ground ginger 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 85g butter 140g demerara sugar 2 tablespoons treacle or 2 tablespoons
... Every Thursday, without fail, we have a marketing meeting with our favourite client and every Thursday, without fail, I get pestered for cake. I’ve never taken cake to this meeting for a couple of reasons... firstly, as I’ve explained, the meeting is on a Thursday and I usually bake at the weekends so by the time the meeting comes round I’m knee deep in the stresses of the working week and the last thing I want to do on a Wednesday night is bake... secondly, I’ve left it so long now that I honestly don’t think I can take the pressure. There’s such a fuss made and I keep trying to explain my way out of it. So much so that now, many of the marketing team swear that I don’t even bake any food for my blog, I simply find photos on the internet and pass them off as my own! As it happens I made these glorious sticky toffee pudding cakes on the recent bank holiday Monday and popped them into the freezer and utterly forgot to take them down to London with me... so I’m sorry girls, you’ll just have to wait for another week... This tray bake cake is my classic sticky toffee pudding recipe but I’ve added figs and sultanas to the traditional dates as I happened to have them in the larder. I’ve also added a dash of brandy to the water that i’ve soaked the fruit in so these are very grown up cake slices. Seeing that I’m on my #AlternativeEatingPlan I didn’t actually take a bit during photography but The Viking – ever willing guinea pig – told me they were delicious but ridiculously sweet, which is why I’ve not slathered them in toffee sauce, rather offered the toffee sauce for dipping if you choose... and he chose...
dark muscovado sugar
METHOD
100ml milk
Pre-heat the oven to 170C and line an oblong baking tray... mine is 32cm x 23cm and roughly 3cm deep. Place the finely chopped dates, raisins and figs into a bowl with the boiling water, vanilla extract and if using, the brandy and set aside until cool.
FOR THE TOFFEE SAUCE 175g light muscovado sugar 50g butter 225ml double cream 1 tablespoon treacle or dark muscovado sugar
In a large bowl beat the sugar and butter together with an electric hand whisk... keep going until you have a smooth-ish paste... It will never be perfectly smooth like a regular cake butter as the proportions of sugar are too high but keep going until it looks lighter. Add one egg and beat in followed by half the flour and beat in, then half the milk and beat, then add the second egg and beat followed by the remaining flour and beat in. Now add the spices and the treacle or sugar followed by the remaining milk and beat again. Tip the soaked fruit into the batter and beat in once more then pour the batter into the tray and bake for 20-25 mins until risen and firm – set aside to cool in the tray for a few mins and then remove from the tins and cool on a wire rack. To make the toffee sauce simply melt the butter, sugar and half the cream in a pan, stirring all the time. Allow it to gently come to the boil, then add the treacle or sugar and let it bubble away for a couple of minutes and let it darken without burning. Take it off the heat and stir in the remaining cream. Store the sauce in a sterilised jam jar for up to a month in the fridge.

As an after school treat, a group of Shoreham mums got together and gave Starlight a try, they had such a positive experience that they are now regulars and it’s an activity as opposed to a treat! Mrs Rice took a 4, 7 and a 9 year old with her and all three thoroughly enjoyed it so much that they are looking to factor in a session for each of their next birthdays! Each session is separated by age so there is no danger of being accidentally knocked over by bigger and more confident children. The safety equipment is all FREE to hire, organised and easily available to all. You can wear your own skates or hire theirs for a very minimal fee. The music is current and pop, which is very popular with the kids! A small separate area is provided to have a quick lesson and get confidence before joining the throng!
With fun and games organised and provided a limbo stick to test your skills and a plastic hockey set game to join in with if you fancy it! With staff on hand at all times, at least three people are available to help with learning, joining in with games and just generally skating around to pick up any tumblers! You are with in full view of your children at all times and as it’s not rammed with all ages, there is plenty of space for you to walk round with the little ones. refreshments available from the leisure centres facilities At such a fantastic price, with the safety equipment provided, staff on hand, and the fact that the sessions are separated it really is a winning combination and the Shoreham mums wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Starlight!
Come and join in, beginners and experienced skaters always given a warm welcome and helping hand. Games exercise, and fun for all ages. Come with friends and new ones while enjoying yourself! Parties welcome, please call or email for more info: Email: starlightrollerdisco@gmail.com Mini Rollers – 5.45pm - 6.45pm, Entry £3.25, Skate Hire £1.00 Giant Rollers – 7pm - 8.30pm, Entry £3.25, Skate Hire £1.50 Late Skate – 8.45pm - 10pm, Entry £5.00 Skate Hire £1.50 Impulse Leisure Centre, Manor Road, Lancing BN15 0PH Facebook ’Starlight Roller Disco Lancing’.

17 • VIVACIOUS EVENTS
Vivacious Events is a creative events planning service, formed and run by Josie & Andy Kelly. “We started by just wanting to plan weddings – we had planned our own wedding in Cyprus in 2005, and helped to plan a friend’s wedding a couple of years later & really enjoyed both – we researched whether there was a market for wedding planners as it is essentially a very American concept. We really enjoyed planning parties (while realising that not everyone does) and decided to add events too. In 2012 Josie got made redundant as an estate agent, so we took the chance and set up our business, creating our own website & branding. For our first event we decided to put on a charity event to showcase our business, we planned a Charity Retro Disco for St Barnabas House with the help of DJ Jon Hyder of J and J entertainment which we have repeated each year – Retro Night 3 happens on June 13th 2015 and we now pledge 100% of ticket sales to this worthy charity. We also arranged a very successful Charity Ball at the Hilton Brighton last October & this year we are holding a large Charity Christmas Ball at The Grand Brighton for the Teenage Cancer Trust. We not only organise our own events but also plan other people’s events – Christenings, Parties and Weddings too. We offer a Wedding Day Co-ordination Service which Brides & Grooms find very useful, and we can manage and co-ordinate their full Wedding Day. Our aim is to take the stress away from organising an event and to make sure the clients can enjoy their day. We negotiate with & use our own trusted suppliers to secure the best price for our clients so we are not tied in to any suppliers. Vivacious Events also offers a Bar & Wait service for Events or Weddings – professional uniformed staff serving the guests really does make a difference. We are passionate about planning; with creative minds we bring the clients vision alive without breaking the bank.” Please check our web site www.vivacious-events.co.uk www.villagelivingmagazine.co.uk | tel: 0785 2231512
