Cake recipe - best for decorating

Thread Starter: annethered    Started: Fri 29 Feb 2008    Replies: 0

I LOVE cake decorating but don't enjoy the baking part!! I recently have been struggling to find the right recipe for a plain madeira type cake.
I need it foolproof, a recipe which can be increased in quantities to suit different sized tins, a firm-ish texture to the crumb for when I have to shape it and yet moist at the same time.
Ones I have been trying have been turning out a bit dry and when I make the bigger quantities the outside tends to just overcook when I give it the longer time to cook the centre.
Any suggestions?
