The only syn is for the baking powder apart from that its free on green. I haven't tried this yet. I quite like the couscous cake but have found myself going off that as well.

I have cooked both now and besides leaving the sugar out of the CP one.... it rose better... it looked better.... and I put Almond essence instead of vanilla so even smelt better... well what I can smell at the mo with having a cold.
So ermmm me I say the CP one... but will make it with sugar next time haha and maybe lemon as I love lemon cake and FF.
happy baking.

Ended up making it in mini loaf tims, so have brought two to school today. made people try it and quite a success. hoorah!!!! i don't really care how many syns it is...hardly any, and stops me attacking the chocolates which are also on offer.
