Metallurgical coke ('met coke') is used as the main fuel in the smelting of iron ore in a blast furnace.
The results are in.
On the left we have "the box'. The box is more uniform in colour and texture. It was moist and well risen. A perfect looking cake.
On the right we have "baked from scratch" This cake was flatter, moist and generally uniform in texture (except i left it in the oven to cool lsat night and it got a bit of a denser appearance on the base).
The judge smelt both cakes (thoroughly) "the box" had the stronger vanilla smell adn smelt sweeter however had a slightly unnatural sweet smell to it. "Baked from scratch" didnt have as greater more natural smell but was not to overwhelming.
She has awarded points for moistness, texture and overall appearance to "the box".
The judge also awarded points to "baked from scratch" for moistness and texture.
The final result was close in some ways but we found we both preferred the taste of "baked from scratch". The box had an taste that i can only best describe as a preservative after taste left in our mouths.
In my mind (twisted as it is) "the box" is good for a constant looking cake that if you dont bake frequently ie students, flatters that dont have all the basic ingrediants or you are just not to confident a baker then this is great for a now and agin thing.
I prefer baked from scratch for teh taste smell, knowing more what was in it. The price was also cheaper and while it took a bit more time to construct (all of around 3-5 minutes measuring ingrediants i think it was worth it. i constantly double or triple my cake mixs and this is great for me.
In the interests of trying to keep teh playing ground fair i substituted my normal melted butter for oil (same as the box) and mixed and baked it the same way. the vanilla essence that i used wasnt the cheapest but was also not as good a quality as it could have been.
These are my findings so far, i will post further comments for and against the cakes as the variety of testers pass through the house. i am not trying to offend just trying to be as unbiased as possible on a topic that interested me
IF anyone is interested in judging for themsleves, please fell free to flickrmail me or email direct from on my profile address. i will be happy to supply you with the recipe i used, i only ask that you try and use a similar betty crocker vanilla cake recipe to keep our findings as similar as possible.
Feel free to add your comments to this photo after your tests i would love to hear your opinions and results.
PS we opended the frosting sachet enclosed and the smell was horid. the taste was okay (neither here nor there actually) however there wasnt enough for the whole cake (it would have spread on the top to around 2 mm?? thick and the taste has left an oily feeling in my mouth.
Alcan Wind Farm. 13 of these 120 metre high turbines have been built at Lynemouth in SE Northumberland. Castle Morpeth Council refused to grant planning permission in 2007, but this decision was overridden by the Government partly because it will not damage a landscape already dominated by huge industrial structures.
For once I just might agree with them.
KAP at the Quincy Smelter in Ripley, MI (near Hancock) on the Portage Waterway. The smelter complex is unique in the country and, perhaps, the world in the number and types of 19th and early 20th century buildings and landscape features that survive. The smelter operated for decades, processing the copper ore mined throughout the area from deep underground. It eventually closed in 1971 and is now being rehabilitated as a part of the nearby Keweenaw National Historic Park.

The air smelt fresh as the wind came rushing down blowing the leaves of the trees, they were dancing. We came up by an old rail way station, a landmark in the Southern Jamaican history known as the Greenvale Railway station in Mile Gully, Manchester. The station is quite a beautiful structure to view, although dilapidated, surrounded by tall trees and acres of grass it takes my mind back to a time when people were busy hustling their way through this Georgian style wooden structure to travel to different parts of the country. The building had such a creative design, a two storey board structure with fancy staircase work and decorative roofing-once for busy hub and a quiet home for a mile gully resident.

He is wearing a dry suit and was wading out up to his arm pits. He did not pull the net on to the beach but took the live fish from the net and threw them into the bucket (see adjacent image)

The Quincy Smelter processed copper pulled from the Earth by local mining companies in the Keweenaw Peninsula from 1898-1957. The mines are all gone, and the smelting works have been unused for many years.
