"Are you supposed to keep the syrup warm before you pour it over? My syrup was down to room temp and ended up just setting on the top like icing rather than soaking in. Didn't matter in the end though as my husband left it out over night after faithfully promising he'd wrap it up once it was cooled!! I'd made double quantity too as it was to be the bottom layer of a square wedding cake (12"). Also, should you put it back in the tin before pouring on the syrup so it doesn;t go straight through?"

"I just finished making it in a 10" square tin this morning. I'd recommend leaving out about 2 dessert bowl quantities of the mixture as I've got the fun job of scraping the overspill off the bottom of my oven!! I cooked it for exactly 2 and a half hours and it seems perfect. "
