The incentive means you only need a minimum 5% deposit to secure your new home in Alsager. A further 20% is lent to you by the Government. Therefore, you only need a 75% mortgage, which makes securing your new home a much more affordable process.
We think the perfect way to enjoy your new home and impress envious visitors is with a slice of Mary Berry’s Victoria Sponge cake!
On your marks, get set, bake!
Mary Berry’s Victoria Sponge cake recipe:
Makes one 20cm (8in) cake
INGREDIENTS
For the cake
- 225g (8oz) butter, softened
- 225g (8oz) caster sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 225g (8oz) self-raising flour
- 2 level tsp baking powder
For the filling and topping
- about 4 tbsp. strawberry or raspberry jam
- a little caster sugar
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas mark 4. Lightly grease two loose-based 20cm (8in) sandwich tins, 4cm (1½in) deep, then line the bases with non-stick parchment.
Measure the butter, sugar, eggs, flour and baking powder into a large bowl and beat for about two minutes, until just blended; an electric mixer is best for this, but of course you can also beat by hand with a wooden spoon.
Divide the mixture between the tins and level the surface with the back of a spoon or a plastic spatula.
Bake for about 25 minutes, until well risen and golden. The tops of the cakes should spring back when pressed lightly with a finger. Leave the cakes to cool in the tins for a few minutes, then run a small palette knife or blunt knife around the edge of the tins to free the sides of the cakes. Turn the cakes out on to a wire rack, peel off the paper and leave to cool completely.
Choose the cake with the best top, then put the other cake top-down on to a serving plate. Spread with the jam, put the other cake on top (top uppermost) and sprinkle with caster sugar to serve.
