I just read this post yesterday and admired the photo of that beautiful Twelfth cake. Then today, I was reading a Jane Auston mystery by Stephanie Barron, where there is a ball on the Twelfth night and your cake was described exactly, down to the pink icing and the molds used to make the white decorations! Happy holidays and thank you for a lovely blog!LL Fredellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109320671725555595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8745493398948198755.post-44236323376001295182014-12-20T17:05:14.174-08:002014-12-20T17:05:14.174-08:00Because they pull out much more easily after roast...Because they pull out much more easily after roasting, especially when done in front of the fire.Ivan Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500437663759868535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8745493398948198755.post-6654580342071769662014-12-20T14:22:00.156-08:002014-12-20T14:22:00.156-08:00Thanks!Thanks!Joyce Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04498793177103983770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8745493398948198755.post-24868072497055115952014-12-20T09:37:36.744-08:002014-12-20T09:37:36.744-08:00I just found your blog by looking up Duke of Clare...I just found your blog by looking up Duke of Clarence biscuits.
