EvilPixie Dec 2022 12:44pm, 6 Dec 2022 38,230 posts	0 EvilPixie I keep seeing people making cakes (as in sponge!) in the slow cooker .... is it really cheaper and easier? Not so sure! OK maybe cheaper to make a fruit cake (Christmas cakes are being seen alot) as they can be in the oven for a long time but a sponge is 25mins less for cup cakes! why?

Lip Gloss Apr 2023 5:07pm, 9 Apr 2023 68,689 posts	0 Lip Gloss That’s the only way I do my gammon these days. I did mince and tatties in mine for the first time last week and it turned out rather lovely. Always handy to know when I have to work late.

Fields Apr 2023 5:55pm, 9 Apr 2023 9,260 posts	0 Fields I poach mine in ginger beer then glaze and chuck in oven for a bit to crisp up. Must admit I’ve not managed to get rid of the salt even after soaking for 24 hrs and changing water loads. Probably doing something wrong
