Instructions to make Sticky ginger cake:

Add tablespoons of water if it reduces too far. Bottle, cool and refrigerate until needed. This is now preserved and will will keep for a few months after opening
- To make the cake: put butter and sugar into a mixing bowl and cream together.
- Beat in the dark treacle or dark brown sugar
- Add the eggs 1 at a time and beat then in until you have a smooth batter
- Sift the flour, ginger and mixed spice into the batter, then add ¾ of the stem ginger straight on top of the flour and fold in roughly. It's ok for the batter to now be lumpy
- Pour the batter into a prepared loaf tin. I put a strip of greaseproof paper across as in the picture and lightly grease the sides. This makes it easy to lift out.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 180ºC
- Remove from oven and slowly drizzle syrup from the ginger jar over the top of the cake sprinkle over the remaining chopped ginger
- Lift from tin and cool on rack. Nice warmed up with custard, cream or ice-cream
