Our Clearly Scrumptious fairy cake recipe is super easy and quick to do. They make a delicious treat to share with your family and are great fun to decorate. You can use any of our Scrummies or Clearly Scrumptious products to make them so they can be customised depending on your creativity or flavour preference. Kids love both baking and decorating these fun little cakes and of course, they will get gobbled up very quickly.

- Add the butter or margarine, sugar and eggs, and beat with an electric hand whisk for about 2 mins until well mixed. If the mixture is too stiff, add a little milk and mix again.
- Divide the mixture evenly between the cake cases to about half full. Bake for 15 -20 mins until risen and just firm.
- Cool slightly, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Ice and decorate the cakes – be as adventurous as you like!
