I've been unsuccessfully looking for condensed milk for a couple of weeks. Yesterday my dad told me he's had 2 tins that he's used in his coffee as he couldn't find any evaporated milk (he likes a milky coffee). I could have swapped him a tin if I'd known!

That's a lot of fruit DT! I was eyeing up a rum and banana cake recipe but not sure my husband will eat it.

Sorry to hear that you can't get eggs icemaiden - a pity jackdaw can't post his surplus out! Lizzie's link is good. I quite often do recipes using banana or yogurt in place of eggs and I have some flax seeds though I've never tried baking with 'flax eggs'. I'm happy to post you some flax seeds if you'd like to give it a try?

Going to make fruit cake to have in cupboard as a ‘back up’ in case we run out of normal cake ;-)

I don’t drink now and have mixed feelings about putting the booze in there. Handling the bottles felt weird but I wasn’t for one second tempted to have a taste. It was like having a book in my hand written in a completely unfamiliar language

I've used ground flax seeds (linseed) and also apple sauce. They do work. Chickpea water (aquafaba) also works very well instead of egg whites.
