In reply to Val warren. For the future, you'd have to try the microwave method if this one hasn't worked (grey icing can be down to the mixing process, not enough colouring etc) or use an immersion blender.

Hi Jane

This recipe looks amazing. If I want to do just two 8 inch tins, should I just do two thirds of all ingredients. Know it won’t have quite the wow factor but don’t need such a big cake. Thanks

Great cake and very affective. But I didn’t like working with the marshmallows. It was almost impossible for me, a novice baker, to get it to stay on the cake. Clean up took forever, hence why I’m up still at 2:20am. Hopefully the kids will appreciate the effort 😂

In reply to Alison. For 6" tins, I would use 2/3 of the recipe!

Hi, is there anyway to alter the recipe to make a smaller cake? Maybe with 6″ tins?

In reply to Cristina Dascalu. If you want to make the cake exactly how it is in the recipe, you will need it. It's a large cake.
