I went to look for my favourite rock cake recipe on Pinterest which is saved from Allrecipes UK and I find Allrecipes UK has gone along with my rock cake favourite! When did this happen? I’ve scoured the internet for the recipie but can’t find it which is very disappointing. Any ideas, please? It was made with white bread flour which made it so unusual and was called something like My Grandma’s Rock Cakes. If anyone’s got the recipe (or another one using strong white flour) I’d be really pleased to see it!

It came up for me Nannymags27.

Forgot how good that site is.

I can't get the UK site, just get sent to allrecipes.com and I can't find any rock cakes on there.

Either of these any good?

I had the same experience, Nannymags 27. I reregistered, but my saved recipes were lost, including the banana and choc chip loaf and the sour cherry and coconut cake that I really liked. I can't find the recipes by searching, either, so I assumed that the ownership had changed or that the site has been relaunched.

Apparently the UK site disappeared some months ago. There is a thread on mumsnet about it and someone suggests a way to find 'lost' recipes.

But I just found this, don't know if it has split from allrecipes.com

That's why I save recipes to my computer. Hope you find what you are looking for Nannymags27

Tina49 many thanks. I’d already seen those two! And thanks everyone else. Must be many annoyed people in the UK & Ireland who have lost much-loved recipes ☹️
