Sweet! For whomever had the idea of gnawing on that root (and the bark on the tree) , a big thank you. Two of my favourite spices when baking; ginger and cinnamon. Must try this!
If memory serves, old Arkwright tried to shift an out of date loaf to every customer whether they wanted one or not! Def going on my list of to-do, not sure if I can get treacle though. Thanks, Keef👍
Tried this from “across one of the ponds”, where local ingredients forced me to substitute black sugar cane molasses for treacal; a local light honey for the golden syrup(to taste); fresh grated ginger for packaged (added a little zip). Delightful cake. I live where more varieties of fresh Ginger grow by metric tonnes than we know how to use! (Fresh Ginger Ales, brewed ginger beer)Thanks for another hit Keefie; aloha nui to Mrs Keef.
My Mum used to make something similar that she called Ginger Bread. Unfortunately she took her recipe with her so I can't compare with this. But, I've a suspicion, if my memory serves me right, that yours and hers are just about identical. I'm going to give this a go 'cos Iceland Freezer Shops supply all the necessary here in Spain. At a price I might add,.
That looks so delicious. Ginger cake is probably my all time favourite cakes. Wow that looks good. I have a recipe for triple ginger Bundt cake (powdered, fresh and candied ginger). Yum!
You make great wonderful ginger cake loaf , tomorrow I want to make only I must buy ingredients.. 🎉🎉❤❤ Thank you ... Leave it don't cut hot , I want to know it's sticky ..❤❤

I'm going to give that a go - looks really delicious. By the way Keef Lakeland do greaseproof liners for loaf style tins and other shapes which are really great and much easier to use. Can leave the cake in them and just keep wrapping it round, no need to take it all off :)
Hi Keith, why don’t you put your pan on your scales and then pour the syrup and treacle into the pan, saves dirtying two other containers, just a thought. Hope you have a good week.
I love this Jamaica ginger cake , I made now only I put 2 spoons treacle molasses, I think 6 spoons is to much . I mixed butter and 2 spoons oil. Why some people put hot water ... I think it will be great my ginger by your recipe,I let it cool 🆒🆒 cut in midnight.🎉❤❤ Have a lovely healthy life. Next time please make Scottish snowballs ..
Why is the grease proof paper required, if the loaf pan is non stick? The cake looks really good, and would pair nicely with a good cup of tea. Cheers, Keef!
@@elaine58100 Did-you-make-her? I am not an English language professor but perhaps should be? I think in this case the word Jamaica is a Portmanteau but I could easily be incorrect. That is why I am still waiting for the call from Oxford.
I love carrot cake, I love everything 🎉❤ .. you can eat with cream or just like that. Both of you are nice lovely people,she is a lucky woman when man cook for her. 😊
Oh yes, that looks so good, just need to find some golden syrup and I can make it. Yum! What spices are in mixed spice? I've forgotten and we don't have that in Alberta, nor bouquet garni, my English cookbooks are very annoyed about that. 😉

It is amazing when you think of how we found out what we could eat and what was a really bad idea!
Ginger cake is the spiced version of malt loaf to me but you have to have it warm with custard. Oh god the memories I have of that desert 👍🏻❤️
Warm with custard. Dang, yeah!
@@Keefcooks Dang, no! Just as a slice like cake.
Yeah, we had McVitie's Jamaican Ginger with warm custard as kids. Gotta try this.
I'll get that money for you tomorrow Brenda, please stop posting dead snails through my letterbox!

I just made steak pie, mushy peas and clootie dumpling for Hogmanay...now I'll need to try this ginger cake too!
I love love love love love... Jamaican ginger cake!!

That looks so yummy...I can practically smell it through my screen!! 😋😋
Awesome! I’ll be sure to make this just as soon as my wife is done with her current diet!
Make it when she is out of the house and freeze it in serving portions.
Women's diets never end.

That looks amazing Keef! Definitely one for me to try.
Bloody lovelehhh keefy!! A nice thick layer of butter and a nice steaming cuppa is an absolute MUST with this 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Yum, yum. I remember McVities Ginger Cake but this one sounds nicer. Thanks :)
A bit different.
Havent seen you or your show on for awhile. Where you away or taking a break or something? Anyway, glad you're back with your amazing show!!

loved that, just need some ice cream or custard with it!
Treacly and Moist... a Treacle mine road ginger cake.
I wonder if von Ludwig knows about this!
@@Keefcooks "Von Lipwig". But since he is a master of multiple identities... I'll allow it :P He'd probably make a scam out of it if he could.
At least she's honest

I remember the McVitie's ones had a little paper thing on the bottom and halfway up the sides.
Hi Keith, why don’t you put your pan on your scales and then pour the syrup and treacle into the pan, saves dirtying two other containers, just a thought. Hope you have a good week.
I would normally do that, but for videos I like to have everything laid out and visible.
Looks lovely :) I like a wee bit of white icing on top of mine x
Actually a good thick spread of butter is perfect!

That looks just amazing! Thanks again Keef, but get some butter on it!
Yeah, I forgot about that. But we are s'posed to be cutting down on our cholesterol.
Yummy, what an amazing ginger cake it looks delicious Keef, :-)
Why is the grease proof paper required, if the loaf pan is non stick? The cake looks really good, and would pair nicely with a good cup of tea. Cheers, Keef!
I have zero faith in non-stick pans!
Would this hold up to the addition of dried fruits and nuts for a Christmas loaf? Thinking mini loaves.
I don't think so - it's quite a light sponge.
Going to bake another one tomorrow as mine sunk in middle. 😢
I want some!!!
There is an old Bob Monkhouse joke.... My Auntie went on holiday to the West Indies. Jamaica? No she went of her own accord.
Yep.
I don't get it?
I don't get it?
@@elaine58100 Jamaica - "did ja make her ?" It's the phonetics in the joke .

Can't help but think of Arkwright with this video.
Just watched that clip, great stuff!
I love carrot cake, I love everything 🎉❤ .. you can eat with cream or just like that. Both of you are nice lovely people,she is a lucky woman when man cook for her. 😊
I also think this cake would be good for Bonfire Night has I don't like parkin :)
!00% right!

Can you get pumpkin spice or gingerbread spice? They are very similar to British mixed spice.
Nice recipe Thanks
Looks bomb!! ❤
Grief-proof paper :D might start calling it that
How long did it actually last in the end? 😋😁
We're being very restrained - only had about a quarter of it so far!
@@Keefcooks Did you put that padlock on the tub? 🤣
I love you two so much!
Judging from the gluttony at the conclusion, the cake compensated for the frustration that it caused.
'Gluttony', pchah! Very tasty cake though!
I believe it was because the ginger came from Jamaica, I could be wrong?
You're doing that all wrong Keef. Where's your cuppa 😜🇿🇦
@4:51 a Effect ? Keefcooks
The spooky green ring - some kind of lens refraction, I didn't do anything!
You should make Dundee Cake
But then I'd get all the Dundonians telling me I'm doing it wrong!
@@Keefcooks just Call it "Tayside City Cake" then 😆.
Love the vids btw, keep up the good work
Would Rum & Raisin work well with this?
As a drink? I wouldn't add them to the cake.
I was thinking that you had too much mixture, that's my city and guilds baking qualification at work.
Well you could've told me while I was doing it!
He could have googled why it’s called Jamaican ginger cake 😐😂

Thank you - never heard of this and there's no way I'd have found it Googling for Jamaican Ginger Cake. Looks very pale though, not like the one I made and that we can buy here in the UK.
when you say Jamaican you don’t skimp on the alcohol
In the cake?
