ooo...I just noticed the diary free tag. While I don't have any restrictions, my brother does, so maybe I can make this for him. Thanks for posting!

I can recommend the one I make (sorry @classic33 but I haven't made this one). It is both dairy free and wheat free (actually it should be down as gluten free if the bicarb of soda is gluten free). It is amazingly moist and truly delicious. We now make it as a birthday cake all the time.
