Masseys More than just another village Shop

This weekend just felt like the perfect time to eat cake in the garden. It’s a fabulous way to celebrate the arrival of spring.

We got a bit carried away and absolutely had to use a selection of goodies for the decorations. Who would have guessed that Flumps, crushed Maltesers, crumbled Flake and cherries could taste so good on a chocolate cake? We think that Spring Cake should be extravagant and celebratory. A little self-indulgent and just plain delicious.

It didn’t last long beyond this first slice of the knife…

Perhaps May should be Spring Cake month in Whittlesford. If you make one, please send us a picture.
