Beautiful Toffee Apple Layer Cake Recipe & How-To | Cupcake Jemma

Here's that Toffee Apple Cake I promised you earlier this week. The perfect Autumnal celebration cake AND you get to use those Toffee Apples from Tuesday's video!

NB. This cake will feed around 18-25 people depending on the size of the slice so all that sugar is proportional to how much you eat guys, before you shout at me...again... ;)

I love the fact that Jemma publicly shares some of the yummiest recipes and amazing techniques with all of us without worrying that that might affect her business

My brother went to your shop Jemma. And he brought back snickers brownies and Nutella cupcakes, For me it was delicious.

Her videos are literally everything you could possibly want from a baking video omg

This morning, I made this sponge using half the recipe, and 2x8" tins. I had no caramel, or cream to make some, but I made lemon butter cream. The sponge, was absolutely delicious, and very golden syrupy, not overly sweet, at all. Thank you Jemma x

Hello Jemma. One time I read from an upset youtuber that his recipes were not meant to be used in any kind of business by subscribers. I believe it is ok as long as we do not affect you directly and it is specially justified if it happens to help us out with our finances. I have a teeny tiny home business and your work has really given me a remarkable upgrade in my recipes. So, I want to thank you for that. My family also benefits from your amazing channel. You are the best! Sending all the love from México 🇲🇽♥️😘

Dear Jemma you make my kitchen smell like a candy shop every now and then.. tiramisu capcakes are my favorite and everything you do brings happiness and joy. You are the best sweet baker for me. Thank you for your simple and delicious recipes...kiss from Greece.

[emmahowie]

Thanks soo much for all your delicious recipes that never fail! Whenever I bake and share people always ask for the recipe, I happily tell them it's a Cupcake Jemma recipe!

[ariyanadelsantos]

I'll be making this for thanksgiving, my aunt told me not to because she's on a diet... My reply, "your diet is not my business" 😂😂😂

[annawessman]

Autumnal is.... the proper word for this cake!

[thenaadia]

A salted caramel drip on a semi naked cake is a great idea!

Love your vids Jemma. It's been about 3 years since I've been out of the baking industry but watching your creativity has motivated me to jump back in 😊

[EnglishwithLucy]

I have just bought the ingredients to make this for my fiancée's birthday tomorrow .... will send you a pic of how it goes :'D

[lizdeal]

I live in South Carolina and finding golden syrup is impossible so I learned how to make it from scratch!! Delicious!!!

[whette_fahrtz]

FWIW it is becoming increasingly easier to find golden syrup in the US, at least in most of the supermarkets near me.

Goes great in oatmeal.

[wendycollins]

Oh and I forgot to say, it looks amazing and I love watching you create wonderful recipes each week... amazing 😉
