I adored The Victorian Farm and I LOVE love Love Ruth Goodman. Ruth Mott is also a lady to look out for when it comes to Victorian cooking. Admire your determination to forego the mixer!
That looks so good! My mum used to make gingerbread cake like this when I was little, and she used to ice it. It’s interesting you use fresh ginger for gingerbread - I feel like everyone in the UK only bakes with ground ginger!
Thank you. This was interesting especially the links you provided. I love gingerbread cake, however, I like mine very gingery and fluffy, not dense. And of course warm with a big dollop of whipped cream. Great video. 👏🏻🍂
I enjoy these cooking videos so much! I usually take the butter out of the fridge a few hours before working with it, to save a lot of effort. It doesn't get spoiled and trully makes your life easier 😅. You can also wrap it in film and hit it with a rolling pin a few times but that's not the best way with a baby sleeping in the house 😂 It makes the butter softer though
Thank you! Yea, I left the butter out for a bit, but not quite long enough and I was so eager to film. Hahaha I'm just imaginging waking him by hitting butter with a rolling pin. That would have been the end of this video right there.
Looks so good Karie!
That was fun and interesting .Perhaps a show on food in Victorian literature or maybe a review of a Victorian cookbook.
Love the description as "molassesy"
What a lovely video 😊 Electric mixers are definitely one thing I’d keep from the 21st century!
Reminds me a lot of McVities Jamaican Ginger cake. Nice with Custard.

Hahaha yea, I'm keeping the electric mixer around when I can. And thank you! I'll have to look into Ruth Mott.

Thank you! And yea, this gingerbread cake wasn't my favorite in the end.
