'Get Baking' is a campaign to encourage new and lapsed bakers to have a go at baking, with the incentive of raising money for Children in Need.
On Roy's show on Tuesday 19 October chef Angela Gray, one of the powerhouses behind the Get Baking campaign, popped in to the studio to give Roy a lesson in the art of cake decorating. You can see the results in the photos below.

Roy's own effort at decorating - not bad at all!

Recipe Time
Have a go at Angela's Sticky Citrus Pudding to get you in the baking mood...
Ingredients
Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you begin.
Finely grated zest of a lemon and an orange, plus their juices
50g muscavado sugar, or use soft brown sugar
100g unsalted butter (extra for buttering the pudding basin) softened
100g caster sugar
2 medium eggs
100g self-raising flour
Method
• Butter an 850ml heatproof pudding basin.
• Mix together sugar and ½ the citrus juices and pour into the basin.
• In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, lemon and orange zest and the sugar until light and fluffy.
• Break in an egg one at a time, adding a tablespoon of flour between and mix in.
• Stir in the remaining citrus juices.
• Fold in the rest of the flour to give you a smooth batter
• Spoon into the prepared pudding basin, and tie a double layer of buttered foil or baking parchment and cover the pudding (butter-side down).
• Place a heatproof plate or rack in the bottom of a large saucepan, and place the pudding on top.
• Pour in boiling water until it reaches half way up the side of the pudding basin. Cover the pan and simmer for 2 hours, top up with boiling water when required.
• To serve- remove the foil lid, run a knife around the inside of the bowl to loosen the pudding.
• Place a serving plate over the top and quickly, but carefully flip the pudding over and release it onto the plate.
• Slice and serve with cold whipped cream or lashings of custard.
