"This book originated as creative food writing workshop held at Central Queensland University's Noosa Campus on Sunday 16 September 2012. Twenty food writers and food historians came to this workshop with a favourite cake recipe, a brief memoir related to the recipe and a picture of the cake (some even brought the cake). The recipes varied from the more traditional Chocolate Cake and Coffee Sponge Cake to very unusual recipes such as Tomato Soup Cake, Coca Cola Cake and a Chocolate Cake made in a mug."--[Introduction].
