Cornflour is to make things lighter, so in cakes that makes sense, if you have it! I wouldn't worry if its not in the cupboard.

I thought it was to make biscuits more crispy and light, but with a cake I would think that that would be not relevant? Or does it have some sort of other purpose? Thanks :-) Just a question, what is the purpose of the cornflour? I thought it was to make biscuits more crispy and light, but with a cake I would think that that would be not relevant?

Its about 16cm across. Hope that helps.. read lots of the comments above people have used different types of tins with this recipe.. some might match what you have in the cupboard.

It came out nice and light (which is what I was after). It makes a very nice tea cake IMO, and lovely with lashings of butter while still warm.

I just made this cake.... The recipe seemed too easy so of course I Creamed the butter & sugar.. added eggs, mushed banana and vanilla the sifted flour & cornflour, mixed spice ( ran out of cinnamon) and baking powder and I added a pinch of salt. Mixed the two together.. with minimal mixing... I then split the mixture between two 9'' round tins and baked. They came out of the oven perfectly formed... i didn't have any chocolate so I looked in the fridge and found some lemon curd. I used this to jam the two cakes together ... then I made a butter icing.. with butter, icing sugar and and little of the lemon curd and a dash of vanilla to ice.. and OMG... it's 8pm on a Wednesday in New Zealand so im going to be a good gal and not have anymore tonight and be an angel and share it out to the builders that are building our house at morning smoko break.... they will LOVE it.
