omg really?? i was using that and synning it as 1 woo :)
your curry sounds lovely i made the mistake of buying ready made curry sauce and its about 5 syns for a little bit grrr... will use it but then make my own from then on :D

yeah i reckon the caramel would be lovely, i found that 250g quark is a lot for one cheesecake (ill be shammed if it was meant to serve two cz i ate the lot lol) so i am going to make two out of the mixture from now on :D xx

Me too!!:D I've been using it for a while and then found out it was only half a syn! I'd love to make my own but it's a lot of effort when I only use a tiny bit! Lol

I love love love the SW tikka massala curry (as you might be able to tell I have it every saturday night!!;) Lol) It tastes better than any jar/packet sauce i've tried! Have you tried the Mayflower curry sauce? It's 2 syns per 50ml when made up, tastes just like chip shop curry sauce, I usually have it with egg fried rice but quite a few people on Minimins use it to make there chicken curry.

I thought that about the quark too, great idea to make two separate cheesecakes, you could probably get away with spreading the filling thinner too!:) x x x
