How Many sugars do you have?

[simongt]

About the same age as you were, I'd use a spoon to scoop up what was left of my mum's home baking cake mix from the mixing bowl before it went in the oven. I preferred the raw mix to the cake itself as I could taste more sugar in the mix than in the cake.

Oh yes - ! As both my mum and gran were grand bakers of cakes, I would always get to 'lick the bowl out' once the mix had been put into the cake tin - !
