Marmite is made from yeast extract that's concentrated and created when brewing beer. its a by-product that sane people would just throw away. wasps had no part in its creation
Oh @MrBarryLewis, we (South Africans) appreciate your willingness to try Marmite Cake. I personally don't like Marmite, but prefer Bovril. The sweet version of Marmite cake is well known and much loved, the savoury version I have never heard of before. Marmite/Bovril is an excellent source of B vitamins and I know of many people that stir a teaspoon full in hot water for a source of energy. Snowflake is a brand of wheat flour that is sold as both All Purpose Flour and then you also get the Self raising flour in the brand. Next you should try our traditional South African Milk Tart..and then Bobotie. But be warned, just like our 11 Official languages, you will find many versions of milk tart and bobotie.
Looks amazing! I bet it does taste bizarre though. I love Marmite and have tried Marmite Biscuits, Rice Cakes and Chocolate too. They are bizarre but strangely I like them XD There are Marmite Cookbooks out there and I would love for you to make one of the recipes in there. Recommendation? Marmite Bangers and Mash!! The Marmite fused with the gravy is absolutely amazing!! You've got to try it if you havent! :D
I'm South African and my mother-in-law made a marmite tart. I think the cake you are going to make are the same or very close to it. Her recipe had a bit of sugar in the batter. It was pretty good. Edit. It is the same as my MIL's marmite tart, but she either put it back in the warm oven after adding the cheese or she put the cheese on before the marmite drizzle, because her cheese was more melted into the cake part.
Hey Barry, we had Marmite in the house when I was growing up and I hated it. When I went flatting, my flatmate introduced me to Vegemite. That I can tolerate. It is not nearly as strong when applied sparingly. I usually only eat it with cheese though. I don't know if you can get it in the UK but it would be interesting to try perhaps.
This would be heaven for my husband & I. We were both brought up on Marmite and I love the stuff 😋I’ve never tried it in cake form before, a very interesting idea 💡 Thanks Barry n Mrs B 🤗👍
Hi, i am so curious to try it, couldnt find it here in germany on any of the markets.. I can send back some turkish sweets & baked goods if you are interested😊
Barry, I beg you, try Malva pudding if you haven't yet. It's a south African desert similar to a sticky toffee pudding, but without being so sickeningly sweet. It's freaking amazing
I keep meaning to try marmite; it's not exactly common in my area, but there's usually a British section in the major grocery stores with things like marmite, jaffa cakes, Yorkshire tea, and some very nice jams. I know it'd be good in small amounts as an ingredient - it's basically salty nutritional yeast - but I honestly don't know whether or not I'd like it spread on buttered toast. The general idea of marmite cheese bread sounds delightfully savory, though.
It's great. Just have a very tiny amount on hot buttered toast to start with. And when I say tiny I mean tiny, almost certainly less than you are thinking. Almost every single stock photo of marmite toast you get when you google marmite on toast is wrong and clearly done by people who don't eat marmite on toast. You want to make the melted butter on toast colour go from bright goldeny of buttered toast to slightly darker goldeny as it mixes with the marmite not covering it with marmite. At that level it really brings out and enhances the flavour and sweetness of the butter giving it much greater depth while also getting the marmite taste. Very minimal amounts on toast etc so it adds and enhances the flavour not just dominates it is probably the best way to eat it (and I will eat it from the jar), certainly for a newbie. It also doesn't have the sort of cheesiness of nutritional yeast. It's powerful salt and umami. It's got more in common with the taste of soy sauce than nutritional yeast (but it's still quite different to that),it's similarly strong and like soy sauce you want it to add and accentuate not dominate flavours most of the time. And marmite has a smoothness and almost sweetness to the taste vegemite (the australian equivalent) does not, that stuff is saltier, sharper and rougher in taste (we have very few ways to describe taste so I don't know if that makes sense).
@@mytimetravellingdog To be fair, I like peppers dipped in doenjang, which from what you're saying, I might call kind of like Korean marmite. It's... well, so soy sauce is basically the brine from pickled soy beans, and doenjang is what's left of the soy beans themselves after six months to a year of fermenting. So, yeah, marmite is the remaining solids from fermenting beer, doenjang is the remaining solids from fermenting soy sauce, definitely not the same thing, but pretty similar in concept at least. Huh. Now I want to see if I can swap out the two, doenjang on toast, marmite stew. Now I really have to try marmite so I can have a baseline for experimenting!
South African here. The sweet sponge concoction is called a tea scone in our house. No idea why, but I got the recipe for from my mother-in-law and that's what she calls it. As someone who doesn't like Marmite (it's waaaayyyy too salty and strong for my taste) I do like this cake, but we use way less Marmite (our recipe calls for 50ml of Marmite, so we drop that way down). Also, in SA we have something called Bovril which is similar to Marmite, but less salty and sticky. We often use this instead and it tastes great, but there are Marmite lovers and Bovril lovers and people are divided on this topic. 😂
What part of SA? I spend most of my time visiting Clarens, FS. Marmite is manufactured from brewery ingredients such as yeast and is vegetarian, Bovril is made from beef stock. I grew up with both in the house.
Bovril is British too. Unlike Marmite, which is vegan, Bovril is beef extract paste, so basically super condensed beef stock with yeast extract added. It can be used as a spread but also added to many dishes for umami boost, or as a hot drink.
I put marmite on my pikelets and pancakes 😋😋 delicious!! Our marmite here in New Zealand is way thicker than that though and black in colour, I love it!!
Where do you get sponge flour from, Barry?? Been looking at some great South African recipes but been unsure of what to use in place of their cake flour!
We have it here in the States at a couple of my local grocery stores. I have had Vegemite before on toast. I wonder if it taste the same. I think I will buy a jar of each and find out. Great video today Barry.
Barry have you ever tried Bovril if so does it taste anything like marmite, yes I have tried marmite to be honest I am on the fence about it was thinking of getting a small jar of Bovril to see how that goes. Keep up the good work and hope you all keep well and you survived the cake's. David kirkpatrick
As a teenager my family use to go on holiday every year to Cheddar not only is the cheese fantastic but the variety of cider and scrumpy is great, also my dad lives not too far from there in Wells. I have not been able to get it for a few years but Wookey Hole use to do a fantastic cheese.
I can also remember at the age of 13-15 I use to cycle up the gorge and then just 'freecycle' downhill and once got caught by the police going at around 34mph towards the bottom of the gorge near the main caves close to Jacobs Ladder
I love marmite (even 3 of my 6 cats do!), but wow I had to read that title a few times to make sure I was reading it right 😂 really hoping it’s savoury
@@mrbarrylewisseen the whole video and the title is on point. Just never thought I’d see a title with the words ‘marmite’ and ‘cake’ together 😂 going to send it to my mum to bake with her students at school as they love marmite on their morning toast
@@alexdavis5766 Isn't there alot of salt in Marmite? I thought alot of sodium is bad for animals. I guess if you just give them a lick now and then.... My cat likes cupcakes but I only give her a tiny taste once in awhile. All animals deserve a treat now and again as long if it is not poison to them like onions and raisins.
Hi. Just to let you know. As an ex Southern African, cake flour has no raising agents in it and cannot be substituted with self raising flour. Cake flour has cornflour in it, which is a stabilising agent for cakes. I make my own ‘cake flour’ since moving to the UK., as there is no substitute here. Many thanks for you videos. Kind regards.
Aussie here (australian) and we have vegemite instead of marmite. similar flavour. One of our favourites are cheese and vegemite scrolls. Savory and delicious. Would be great with marmite too im sure. Marmite (or vegemite) for the win
They do sell Marmite here in Germany, in very small bottles (it says 125 gr. but its seems very dense so the bottles are really tiny. You need a really small spoon to fit in the opening. Also: 8€! bloody expensive) Never tasted it, though. But I had Walkers Marmite chips/crisps once, and they were nice. Great Lucile Balls' Vitameatavegamin impressions from Barry in this one! 🤣
In America we have a place called world market, I can get vegimite and marmite for as you call it 4-5 quid . And brown sauce and everything else you Brits consider food .
Mrs B would definitely love cheesy mite scrolls that we make here in Australia it’s like a cinnamon scroll but instead it’s Vegemite and cheese with a bread base 🧀
cheese and marmite scones = ftw. give me a long cold night and a plate of fresh-from-the-oven cheese & marmite scones and a ton of butter. pure and utter bliss 😋
Cake flour is actually its own thing, I think its something like a higher or lower protein? You can actually get self raising cake flour and plain cake flour
Was actually halfway through a bag of Marmite covered Cashews when this popped up, will deffo be trying out the savoury Marmite cake/scone/bread thingy might give the sweet cake a miss tho.
Talking of Marmite, everyone in my family recently seem to love the Graze Marmite crunch snacks that they do (and I mean everyone, like my parents, siblings, nephews and neices.) well except me, but that's because I'm not a big fan of roasted corn snacks in general, (the smell puts me off.) wvwn though no one actually eats Marmite in my household.
Surprisingly marmite is sold in large parts of northern Europe in regular supermarkets. I've seen it in The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark and don't quite remember if Luxemburg had it too but I wouldn't be surprised.
in nz the marmite factory burnt down and jars were selling for over $500. to get more supplies they imported some from the uk but they could not call it marmite so it was called no mate, it did not sell well the kiwis did not like it, seems the recipe is not the same
I started to crave marmite after I started watching the video. So I went and got a jar and spoon and watched the rest of the video eating it out the jar. don’t judge lol
Once upon a time, an acquaintance who hated Marmite made me Marmite on toast. He slathered it on that bread like it was strawberry jam, and proved an important point. You CAN have too much Marmite even if you love it. And putting Marmite in the hands of haters, will make Marmite haters out of lovers. Finally, no wonder he hated it he tried putting half a jar on two slices of bread. Barry, I hope that story makes sense of your like for twiglets and hate for marmite
I dont know if you guys can get Tescos Yeast Extract, we have it in Ireland its not only cheaper than the real thing, but I swear tastes better than the real McCoy. Its also easier to spread & darker in colour. It tastes like Marmite did a decade r 2 ago, even IF they say it hasnt changed!
Marmite = Beer 🍺 industrial waste. The stuff the clean out of the casks after making beer. Remember everything in the marmite was taken out and went into the beer. Try making a cake and saving the waste to make a pudding?
Hi Barry, love your comical vids, always watch and look toward to new ones from New Zealand, Hmmm, this latest with Marmite is something else, In New Zealand we have marmite made by Sanitarium from a yeast extract, I personally prefer Vegemite which is Australian made product by Kraft, As for British Marmite, have tried it when we have been there and it taste disgusting so not our cup of tea😄
I'm wondering if it is regional, most of my experience of food is in FS and Lesotho. The best combination I brought back was bacon, maple syrup and banana.
Today is Saturday 23rd September. Tomorrow we will be going shopping and making the cheese and Marmite cake! We both love Marmite and have normal, XO and chilli Marmite in the house, so we might be making variations!!! Will let u know!!!
Marmite(/Vegemite/whateverelseitscalledintheworld) is 100% a flavor that if you grew up with it, you love it, and if you didnt, you hate it. I was very much thinking the same sort of thing as Mrs. B when the first one came out of the oven: "It looks like cheese bread".
Just a heads up, I'm an American and did not grow up with it. A foreign exchange student from Australia let us kids try it and I've loved it ever since. I have 2 jars in my house as we speak. I prefer the flavor of marmite over vegemite but the prefer the consitency of vegemite over marmite.
I tried marmite a year ago for the first time and liked it very much. The proper way af course, toasted bread butter and thinest layer of marmite. Tried it because of this channel
We can get cheese and vegemite scrolls here in Australia, only reason i mention it is marmite and vegemite are similar and Mrs B might like the, could potentially do a vegetarian friendly version for the girls
Marmite is like cilantro some people like it some people don’t, I for one love cilantro, but I’ve never tried marmite, and I am not sure I would want to.
Tom Scott's probably fuming at this. All this time later, he can still taste Marmite. Also, at 10:30 you can see Barry's face turn beet red in record time.
I was introduced to Vegemite by a coworker (one or both of her parents were from New Zealand). I was curious to try something different, but (being very diplomatic about this) it was an immediate and very emphatic no. I know Marmite is similar (and there are legion who will declare it different (to the point of significantly different)), so these are a pass from me. But, I can very much cheer you on, Barry, for baking things that your wife loves.
Are you in the love it or hate it camp for Marmite, or have you never tried it?

Love it mate!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🤤🤤🤤🤤
I THINK I'd like it. I had veggimite toast once, I really liked it once I got over the salt explosion.
Hay Barry if you detest Marmite try Vegimite it has a different flavour and you may love it.
The real battle is between camp Marmite and camp Bovril. Bovril ftw!
Marmite is made from yeast extract that's concentrated and created when brewing beer. its a by-product that sane people would just throw away. wasps had no part in its creation

The facial expressions during the tasting are just priceless 😂
I made marmite sticky toffee pudding when I was a kid and it just tasted like salted caramel
What!?! that's cool it's a bit fresh in my mind but maybe the sugar from it counters the salty edge to the marmite - perhaps ... lol
You deserve a gold star for trying recipes that you know your wife most likely will love and you find intolerable. 🌟⭐ Enjoyed the reactions very much!
They're my favourite TH-cam family. They feel so wholesome.
Hot toast, loads of real butter and a thin smear of Marmite- heaven❤
Looks amazing! I bet it does taste bizarre though. I love Marmite and have tried Marmite Biscuits, Rice Cakes and Chocolate too. They are bizarre but strangely I like them XD

It might be because he used pre-grated cheese which has anti-coagulants that stop melting :)
@@Platinumb1It could be. Many TV cooks warn against pregrated cheese if it needs to be melted.
Is this a mother-in-law thing?😂 our recipe is also from my mother-in-law!!
@paulawiid2148 I don't know, but that is a funny coincidence. Lol.
I laughed so hard when Barry said “ it smells like a marmite festival in here “ 🤣

It is not nearly as strong when applied sparingly. I usually only eat it with cheese though. I don't know if you can get it in the UK but it would be interesting to try perhaps.
Could you put herbs and maybe chillie flakes in the cake batter on the first one or maybe some nuts
This would be heaven for my husband & I. We were both brought up on Marmite and I love the stuff 😋I’ve never tried it in cake form before, a very interesting idea 💡 Thanks Barry n Mrs B 🤗👍
More than happy to send some marmite to folks who want to try it, along with any other marmite goodies you can buy. Marmite rice cakes are amazing!
#marmiteclub
I'll take you up on that! Always wondered what it tastes like... How can i get my address to you? Rather not post it here.
Thx!
Hi, i am so curious to try it, couldnt find it here in germany on any of the markets.. I can send back some turkish sweets & baked goods if you are interested😊
Absolutely interested in an exchange and would love to work out the details with you... not sure how to private msg here anymore though. Any ideas?

You shouldn't use pre grated cheese it contains cellulose as a anti caking agent and prevents proper melting of the cheese

Two videos featuring Marmite when I just bought a jar of it last week. My second jar, no less. This is eerie!😂
Haven't tried marmite but I keep vegemite in stock, here in Texas. Something like $5 for 200ml on Amazon
This... This is a true show of love 😂

In South Africa cake flour is plain all purpose flour ... We'll call flour with self raising agent ...self raising flour ... Lol
Cake flour is actually its own thing, I think its something like a higher or lower protein? You can actually get self raising cake flour and plain cake flour

Ha ha! I think he wasp thing is a twist on an Eddie Izzard line...'Honey bees are amazing creatures. I mean, think about it, do earwigs make chutney?'
Cake flour in South Africa is NOT self raising flour. It is a lower protein content flour than bread flour. But it most certainly isn't self raising
It's the same in the USA. (USA cake flour is also ground finer than all-purpose flour)
Without even seeing the video I have to say that marmite should be considered a crime against humanity.
in nz the marmite factory burnt down and jars were selling for over $500. to get more supplies they imported some from the uk but they could not call it marmite so it was called no mate, it did not sell well the kiwis did not like it, seems the recipe is not the same
There's a swiss version called cenovis i think its the same thing! 😊
oh cool! I was over in Switzerland last Year but didn't go in many supermarkets unfortunately!
I so want to make that marmite bread thing!!
Marmite is used in lovely marinades for meat 😊
Cake flour is actually low protein flour that's great for cakes as they produce a lighter cake as a result of the lower gluten content
I started to crave marmite after I started watching the video. So I went and got a jar and spoon and watched the rest of the video eating it out the jar. don’t judge lol

Finally, no wonder he hated it he tried putting half a jar on two slices of bread. Barry, I hope that story makes sense of your like for twiglets and hate for marmite
Should it cake? No.
Should it be dropped in the deepest, darkest hole and never seen again? Yes.
Nothing beats acheese and Vegemite scone or scroll. Greetings from Dimboola, in Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺.
I dont know if you guys can get Tescos Yeast Extract, we have it in Ireland its not only cheaper than the real thing, but I swear tastes better than the real McCoy. Its also easier to spread & darker in colour. It tastes like Marmite did a decade r 2 ago, even IF they say it hasnt changed!
It looks good, if I wasn't on a diet I would make it, not too keen on the second one
I´m a big fan of Maggi, and people say it´s very familiar to Marmite maybe i get a jar and try it.
I'm in the Barry camp, hate the stuff!
Nice! It really is a love / hate thing!
Need to check to see if our local disgusting food museum has a marmite during the "taste and puke" tasting.
Do you think you could make it with Vegemite?
I had to go and get some hot crumpets with Marmite to munch on while watching this video!!😂
If you're in the US, you can buy Marmite and Vegemite at World Market, among MANY other international foods!
Marmite = Beer 🍺 industrial waste. The stuff the clean out of the casks after making beer. Remember everything in the marmite was taken out and went into the beer.
Try making a cake and saving the waste to make a pudding?
You could try use mustard instead of marmite
Hi Barry, love your comical vids, always watch and look toward to new ones from New Zealand, Hmmm, this latest with Marmite is something else, In New Zealand we have marmite made by Sanitarium from a yeast extract, I personally prefer Vegemite which is Australian made product by Kraft, As for British Marmite, have tried it when we have been there and it taste disgusting so not our cup of tea😄
Me and my boyfriend are like the 2 of you. My boyfriend hates Marmite and I loooove it!
I'm with you Berry, can't stand the stuff no matter how its served. Yuckers!
Hilarious!! Thank you
40 secs into the vid....."hey Google what is a twiglet?"😂
Me being from South Africa and not knowing this was even a thing
I'm wondering if it is regional, most of my experience of food is in FS and Lesotho. The best combination I brought back was bacon, maple syrup and banana.
My grocery has an international section and they have Marmite but not Vegamite. I haven't been brave enough to try it.😅
There are two kinds of people. Those who love Marmite, and monsters.
Today is Saturday 23rd September.
Tomorrow we will be going shopping and making the cheese and Marmite cake! We both love Marmite and have normal, XO and chilli Marmite in the house, so we might be making variations!!! Will let u know!!!
Marmite(/Vegemite/whateverelseitscalledintheworld) is 100% a flavor that if you grew up with it, you love it, and if you didnt, you hate it.
I was very much thinking the same sort of thing as Mrs. B when the first one came out of the oven: "It looks like cheese bread".
Just a heads up, I'm an American and did not grow up with it. A foreign exchange student from Australia let us kids try it and I've loved it ever since. I have 2 jars in my house as we speak. I prefer the flavor of marmite over vegemite but the prefer the consitency of vegemite over marmite.
I tried marmite a year ago for the first time and liked it very much. The proper way af course, toasted bread butter and thinest layer of marmite. Tried it because of this channel
We can get cheese and vegemite scrolls here in Australia, only reason i mention it is marmite and vegemite are similar and Mrs B might like the, could potentially do a vegetarian friendly version for the girls
Never had Marmite. I've seen others use it in recipes, but after watching you, I don't think I want to try it.
Marmite is like cilantro some people like it some people don’t, I for one love cilantro, but I’ve never tried marmite, and I am not sure I would want to.
Marmite making is easy, you just leave a cow in the corner until it withers.
Cake flour is low gluten extra fine flour.
Self rising flour has baking powder already in it. Totally different things.
Tom Scott's probably fuming at this. All this time later, he can still taste Marmite.
Also, at 10:30 you can see Barry's face turn beet red in record time.
I'm South African - not sure where Barry saw it, but cake flour is not the same as self-raising flour.... you need to add baking powder when using it.
Marmite tastes like salted dirt, so I am very curious as to how these cakes taste.
salted dirt cake!
I think marmite would be good in stews like a flavour enhancer.
Home made marmite v’s home made Vegemite Barry - the showdown
Totally trying this with vegemite instead!
I was introduced to Vegemite by a coworker (one or both of her parents were from New Zealand). I was curious to try something different, but (being very diplomatic about this) it was an immediate and very emphatic no. I know Marmite is similar (and there are legion who will declare it different (to the point of significantly different)), so these are a pass from me. But, I can very much cheer you on, Barry, for baking things that your wife loves.
I prefer vegemite over marmite… typical aussie i am lol
What's the difference taste wise in your opinion?
Vegemite is really mild compared to Marmite. I'll stick with Marmite. 🙂
Fair play to you for trying some Barry,considering you don't like cheese n marmite.
Believe it or not, I can take it or leave it. I eat it, but it doesn't exactly make me swoon.
