Hello, do you know is there a specific temperature that the syrup should be cooked up to before removing it from the heat?

Hi Jane, Great recipe to you think this cake will support a layer of fondant and fondant decorations? Sounds like the perfect base for a Bluey cake

In reply to Wendy. I am also wondering if it’s better to freeze the whole cakes before dividing and adding the syrup or to freeze after adding syrup?

Hi, I love this cake and will be making it in a few weeks for my daughter . Is it ok to freeze the sponge with the syrup in then remove from freezer to fill and stack while frozen? Thank you

In reply to Laura. I'd just leave it out, or swap for a passionfruit syrup x

Hi,
My soon to be 9 year old is passionfruit obsessed. How would you recommend making this alcohol free?

Hi Jane, do you think I could use Monin Passionfruit Syrup in the syrup if I adjust caster sugar and don’t use the liquor? I’m going to make the cake for my daughters 18th .

In reply to Jennie. Hiya! Do you mean a two layer cake? Yes you can use half of the ingredients and only bake into one tin and then the timings etc are the same as well! x

In reply to Jacqui. Hiya jacqui did you make using the 75 % method and would a 2 tier cake be 50% of the original recipe.

Hi Jane I’m a fairly new baker. This will be my first cake to make. I would only like to bake a 2 tier birthday cake does that mean I literally half the quantity of ingredients ? And still at same oven temperature and timings.
Thank you for any help given x
