Regency Cake Recipes

Since it's my birthday today, I was curious on what kind of cake there was in the Regency Era. So I headed over to The Jane Austen Center's website and found a couple of Regency recipes. I never tried to make any of these recipes... I wonder how some of them taste! I think a couple of them include rose water, which I never used in cooking.

Rich Pound Cake

Gingerbread Cake

Different Kinds of Wedding Cake

"Spunge" Cake (The Recipe references Mansfield Park, I think)

There are also other recipes at the Jane Austen Center. One of these days, I should try some of them!
