I sprinkled Demerara sugar on the top before l baked it and it’s given it a lovely crunchy texture.

They would probably be fine but I feel it's not worth going to all the trouble of making something to have it spoilt by an ingredient.
Seeing as you are the head baker here, l will take your words as a compliment!

I will send you a piece by carrier pigeon. Just keep looking in the sky for a grey and white bird with a cake box strapped to it!

I thought l would show you it as it came out beautifully and tastes gorgeous, especially with a nice cup of tea!
Anyway, would you have used the two year old dried dates?

Re: Would You Use Two Years Out Of Date Dried Dates?
Thank You, ST and summer.Primus, the 2 year old cake has all gone now. I gave the rest to my friend who came to visit me today.
I am going to make another this week as it truly was lovely. I think my hens fresh eggs that l used made the difference.
