thank you josh for posting this, i made it years ago and forgot the recipe, your cup method saves me weighing everything on my electronic scales! so even saves electricity lol.

i like your recipe best, don’t think i’d like it with posh fruits in it, i’m tempted to make it with soya milk and have it vegan like other people have said. This will go in my special book too Marilyn

I remember mum making it in the 70s and hating it then.
Have started making it again recently and adapting. My best combo is one mug of chopped walnuts and dried apricots and an inch of grated fresh ginger

These instructions are so clear. I tried the recipe today, using double quantities and 2 tins. The results are great although I’m tempted to spread a little butter on the slices… It really is more of a tea-bread than a cake.

I used a Tesco raisin, sultana and cranberry dried fruit mix and confess to sprinkling little Cointreau over it a quarter of an hour before stirring everything up together.

I also used those specially prepared paper cake tin liners. They save greasing the tins and with this fat-free recipe my tins didn’t even need washing afterwards.

This recipe is going in my special book.. Thank you, Josh Hart!

I heard about this cake at work, and came home to google it – whatever combo of words I used brought this page up first, and I’m glad it did! Me and mum made this last weekend using glace cherries, apricots, sultanas, currents and raisens, and it was fantastic!
Thanks very much (From somebody in Wolves!) for posting this.

This is a recipe I just love and like you, my mum made it in the 70’s. I have tried other twists; replace the milk with a cup of black tea (without milk, just a bag in a mug) and dates and orange zest. This makes it totally fat free and like the comment above, suitable for vegans. I have also made it with something called Splendor – which is one of those sugar substitutes that is granular so you use the same amount but replace the calories by about 300%! I have also soaked the All-Bran in diluted apple juice and used dried apple pieces with a touch of cinnamon. My kids love this. I have also changed the flour to wholemeal. Funny thing is you can change everything about this – EXCEPT the All-Bran! Have tried it with Weetabix and Special K and other cereal but it just don’t work…. And when (if there is any left!) it loses its incredible moistness, try it toasted and buttered….oh yeah!

[...] Particularly interesting was the fact that someone who had worked on the project set up another Twitter feed to give further information to the person who began it. You can read more about how the investigation developed on Josh Hart’s blog post (down at the time of writing). [...]

@Brenda: That’s a little unfair. Nick Booth is many things but he’s not a woman.
