Spelt Cake

[ParthianBow]

Nor can I get doormice in sufficient numbers... :wink:

I think you mean dormice! (Sorry to be a pedant hock: )

@bellatrix - good luck with the spelt cake. I use spelt flour every day to make bread (it has a lower gluten content than the unnaturally high levels found in durum wheat, which is what is in most commercial breads). You'll find that it's a really 'heavy' flour to cook with, producing dense loaves, and I suspect cakes, that do not rise nearly as much as you might expect with 'normal' flour. But then Roman loaves were much flatter than ours today anyway, so it shouldn't matter!
