It's been a really long time since I made a big cake for sharing.
I'm feeling ok enough to spend a couple of hours putting one together but I'm not sure which to make.
Maybe a chocolate one, because, everyone likes chocolate.
I will, at some point, endeavour to make a hummingbird cake, with all of its ingredients.
Hopefully, I don't run out of energy by the time I have the time to make a cake. |

If we are talking big sharing cakes, a good victoria sponge is a beautiful thing, I especially love one with lemon curd and cream instead of jam.
I also love a carrot cake with deliciously sweet cream cheese frosting.
Nigella's death by chocolate and Guinness cakes are also devine for big bakes! |

What about changing it to a flavoured cream. Or are you disliking the texture? |

"Oh I love a good hummingbird cake 🤤
I don’t think I’ve ever tried it
Me neither, so I'm not sure what the texture and taste should be.
Before I make it I'll research for a trusted recipe."
I volunteer as taste boy!!! |

I want to make a cake, rather than a tart or pie. My lot prefer cake over other baked dishes. |

I make a fabulous (not my words) rhubarb crumble. Happy to share the recipe.
My daughter has a natural ability when it comes to baking. The lightest sponges and the best chocolate brownies I've ever tasted.
There's definitely a real skill to it. |

Chocolate is a shout. Really squidgy and fudgy and moreish and with Scottish strawberries to cut through the richness. 
(I'm not talking about what you should do Nanna, more what I'll be doing this weekend after reading the thread) |

Traybakes are great for sharing.
I enjoy baking. Chocolate is my favourite but you cant beat a nice Victoria sponge.
Enjoy 😋
