Sticky Toffee Pudding Cake

So this recipe came about from a recent obsession with sticky toffee pudding (for which we have a new recipe coming soon). The idea was simple…make two round sticky toffee pudding cakes (although not as gooey as a normal sticky cake so that it holds together). Sticky toffee pudding is a rich and deep cake flavoured with dates and brown sugar (molasses sugar makes it!).

This is a great tasting cake which has a wonderful deep dark taste from the dates and molasses sugar.

The whole cake is stopped with a toffee flavoured whipped cream topping to which we added some toffee sauce to go with the flavour.
