You guys are pregnant or something! OK, I will concede that I do like carrot cake, and yes, I might not know if there were courgettes in a chocolate cake - I mean, if the chocolate is rich enough you could disguise festering, dead rats in there, but beetroots - urgh!!!

I lived in Russia for a few months, and in the canteen they used to slap a spoon of grated, pickled beetroot across the mashed potato - it put me off for life!

It's not the colour - pickled cabbage - bring it on, but beetroot...that was certainly brought by people from outer-space.

I have a rather spiffing recipe for caremalised-cockrocah cake, if you're interested. It's rather, er, 'crunchy'.
