Put your worries behind you and take some time out to feed your senses. Cake Time is a great way to hone your baking skills while raising money for homeless and badly housed people in Britain.

If you’re a bit of a novice in the kitchen and can’t tell your marzipan from your icing, you can still get involved. Anyone can do it, this site has lots of scrumptious, easy-to-follow cake recipes; alternatively buy a cake from your local bakery. You'll also find some great fundraising tips here designed to make sure you get the most out of your Cake Time.
