LOAF CAKES
Lisa always found baking relaxing. It could make the stresses of the day disappear or could make a good day even better.
Lisa finds baking relaxing. It makes the stresses of the day disappear or can make a good day even better. Her cakes are lauded by friends and family and now also by her loyal customers.
Layer cakes and sheet cakes are wonderful and perfect for birthdays, parties, weddings, but sometimes you just don't need a large cake. However you do want cake! A slice of heavenly, moist and flavoursome cake. A cake that is just enough to have a slice with your family after a meal or in the afternoon with a friend and a cup of tea or coffee.
That's why The Yummy Yank began baking loaf cakes. Just the right size to be able to enjoy several varieties of Lisa's layer cakes without worrying about too many leftovers. They are baked in recyclable 1 pound trays and are perfect when you feel the need for a little indulgence.
All loaf cakes freeze, wrapped in foil, for three months. They can be kept in fridge, well wrapped, for 2-3 weeks. Bring to room temperature for best flavour.
N.B. Our products are made in a kitchen where there are traces of peanuts, nuts and sesame.

AMERICAN COFFEE CAKE LOAF
Lisa’s personal favourite and a recipe that has been around for generations. An American Coffee Cake does not contain coffee!! What??? That’s right, it’s to be had with a cup of coffee. Or tea or in Lisa’s case a glass of cold milk! It is a moist cake laced with cinnamon, pecans and sugar in the middle of the cake and more of that same delicious streusel on top. We promise you, this is too nice to miss. Baked in 1lb loaf trays 170mm x 100mm x 55mm. Contains nuts.
