Back to recipe list

Source & History

This is one of Uncle Allan's favourites. The honey is the rising agent in this recipe - there is no other agent included. Grandma has been making this for twenty-odd years. The recipe originally came from one of Rhoda's fellow bowlers.

Notes

  • Rhoda adds the honey to the egg mixture once it is nice and fluffy. 
  • there are instructions for rolling with the Jam Roll recipe.
  • the mock cream recipe is here.
