I just made this now for Father’s Day, parents coming for lunch and I haven’t tasted the cake yet but have tasted the buttercream and toffee sauce and omg 😍 The sauce is divine! It’s genuinely from the gods. Can’t wait for a slice of the whole thing

Cheers for the vid when i use treacle or golden syrup i heat it wit the tin in a pot of simmering water it make the syrups thinner and easier to pour or use a spoon keep up yer guid work thanks.

[@boofle12]

This looks amazing! I know what I'm baking this weekend 🤪

[@JanesPatisserie]

Hope you enjoy it!! x

[@abdulahmed-hg9cx]

I have made your recipe custard cream cake and it tasted really good and I really loved it. ❤

[@JanesPatisserie]

[@abdulahmed-hg9cx]

@@JanesPatisserie thank you

[@lifeisbeautiful_nz]

❤ Love sticky date puddings. I used to make this cakes a lots in lifestyle homecare villages. Those Scottish and English elderly love love love this pudding, served with butterscotch cream and ice-cream. Thank you❤❤❤

Black treacle substitute? Molasses? Dark corn syrup? (In the US, some people call corn syrup Karo syrup. Karo is just the name of the manufacturer.)

[@danagodfrey2979]

Thankyou for the awesome recipes cheers thx 🌻

[@JanesPatisserie]

My pleasure 😊

[@bcl27]

I made this on Tuesday. It was so popular everyone wanted more. So good thank you If I cook it all in one tin and cut it I n half how long extra would I cook it for?

[@pauline3379]

Oh my gosh 😮 this looks amazing, I love a good sticky toffee pud, so will definitely have to make this 😋

[@gemgem2705]

❤ yummy, i can't wait to make this. Thank you 😘

[@JanesPatisserie]

Enjoy it 🥰

[@clairebear9971]

Looks gorgeous. And thanks for linking to equipment. I’ve dabbled with baking but now I want to have it as a proper hobby and want to invest in decent equipment so it’s soooo helpful to see things like which pans you recommend. Saves buying cheaper stuff that might not give as good results.

[@JanesPatisserie]

Ahhh yay! I am so glad xx

[@jograham8792]

Hi Jane, which baking spread do you prefer. I have tried a couple but they seem to make the cake mix more runny than normal. Thanks x

[@JanesPatisserie]

Any supermarket own ones, I don't use branded! x

[@burtfox1849]

Omg that looks so good yum yum😋 😊

[@JanesPatisserie]

Thank you 😋

[@harrodsfan]

Nice ! Must try this one soon.

[@JanesPatisserie]

I hope you like it!

[@margotwelland2459]

Is margarine the same as baking spread for making your cake batter as I usually use butter, what difference will it make please?

[@JanesPatisserie]

I'd say they can be different, as some margarines are only oil based but the baking spread I use still contains buttermilk but for cake batter I use a baking spread x

[@mrsnewyhn]

How do you get your cakes to be flat?? Mine seem to ‘dome’ slightly x

[@JanesPatisserie]

These naturally bake this flat to be honest, but if you struggle generally you can lower the baking temperature (for example 160c fan, make it 140c fan) and bake for much longer instead x

[@Valerie-xn9kg]

For your sticky toffee cake, do you add all the liquid that you added to the dates to soften them? Valerie.

[@JanesPatisserie]

Yes! All the liquid used to soften the dates then goes into the blender x

[@Marlu-hl9sy]

Have to get the black treacle in an british online shop first but than I will give it a try!! It’s very relaxing watching your video by the way

[@SistersSweetTreats]

I'm going to make it for Father's Day, looks amazing 😍!!

[@maggiedonaldson8432]

I think this must be the best yet. Obscenely wonderful.

[@JanesPatisserie]

Thank you!! x

[@Arlo.x.x]

How much of the toffee sauce do you add to the buttercream? X

[@JanesPatisserie]

85g - the recipe is in the description box! x

[@chrishorne3185]

Another lovely cake Jane. Thank you 😊😊

[@JanesPatisserie]

I'm glad you like it

[@TickityBoo70]

Thank you so much for sharing this fantastically delicious cake recipe. I have just made it for my stepmother’s 70th (using numbers 7 & 0 silicone moulds x 2). Sticky toffee pudding is her favourite desert and she said it was the best cake she’d ever tasted. It was not only packed with flavour it was moist and visually stunning (if I don’t mind saying myself lol!). You’ve made a 70 year old lady very happy 😊

[@JanesPatisserie]

Ohhhh that's amazing!! I'm so glad it was such a hit!! x
