    Also being retired due to health issues I find cooking and baking great therapy to stop me getting bored. Loved the tip about making your own caster and powdered sugar, not having a spice grinder (yet) I just used a pestle and mortar. Saved a few bob already

    I have watched several videos on baking a Victoria sponge cake. This is the best- it is methodical with clear explanations of each step. I am English domiciled in Norway and I really like the Northern accent - confidence inspiring. I will be trying this recipe.

    Well ! I've given up reading, watching t.v.,knitting etc etc. I just spend my evenings watching Mr Kirkwoods lovely you tube videos. They are beautifully presented and so easy to follow - no loud music or excitable dialogue. I shall work my way through the recipes. Thanks too for all the useful little tips.

    Two of our young grandsons stayed over last night. We made your pizzas (they love em) and today we are making this for their grandma. They really have got the baking bug now, and love watching your videos as we make things. Chicken and Chorizo pies & sandwich rolls are my to do jobs on Sunday. As ever, a brilliant in depth video John. The best channel on UA-cam. Keep it up my friend.

    Another fantastic recipe thank you John I tried it today and put a filling of apple, blackcurrant jam and custard in it in 3 layers and it is absolutely delicious. It’s just like my Mum used to make when I was a young boy in the UK in Grimsby Lincolnshire where I was born. It’s so much better than cake bought in the shops the difference is unbelievable big thanks much appreciated!

    @zagonde 5 років тому +3

    You're so helpful with all the tips you give. I had no idea about granulated sugar becoming caster sugar becoming icing sugar. Some of us (most of us?), especially those of us who only occasionally cook and bake, or barely do it at all, don't know this stuff and so head off to the shops buying items that we think are different/separate. But it's not just this, it's all the little tips throughout all of your videos, which when I've followed your simple instructions and the tips have always seen me have a successful outcome.
    Now I gotta go buy me those sandwich tin things coz we ain't got them. I didn't know they were a thing until now.

    Thank you John, splendid recipe... my batter curdled and after the addition of the flour was thick like a dough....I moistened it with some milk and it turned out amazing, light and springy to the touch.

    Another lovely cake John. I'm not a chef but what I do when I'm adding the eggs is add a little bit of the flour at the same time so it doesn't curdle. I don't know whether this is the right thing to do it not, I think I read it somewhere

    Me and our 12 year old daughter Inga have tried our hand at this cake. We added the sugar before seeing the part about making it fine, turns out ours is jam sugar! When it came time to do the "drop test" our batter stuck to the spoon like clay and we laughed so hard!!!! It's in the oven now and we'll give an update how it came out after our wee apple timer goes off!
