Cake Pudding

There are variety of puddings which can be made on regular basis and also as per the demand of the loved ones. This one is always loved by children and also the elders alike. Its basically eggless cake which is welcomed by the vegetarians as well.

Cakes are of different varieties. But broadly they can be classified into two basic ones namely with icing and without icing. Certain cakes are for tea times., like carrot and walnut cake, banana and walnut cake, chocolate sponge cake, milk cake to name a few. These are generally made without icing.
