Elvis Presley Cake - A recipe from Synovate Global Opinion Panels winter 2006

The person gave me this recipe is not a fan of Elvis Presley.  She used to do surveys for Synovate Global Opinion Panels.  Well, Elvis is not here anymore, this company is no longer exists and this recipe is dated October 1971!

Elvis Presley Cake is a recipe from Synovate Global Opinion Panels' newsletter which was printed on winter 2006.  But looks like it is a recipe submission from one of the people who used to answer this company's surveys.

This is the recipe from the newsletter, everyone.  "Thank you, thank you very much" and "Elvis Has Left The Building".

Oh, sorry, "Elvis Hasn't Left The Building Yet".  When I was typing this blog entry, one of my friends, who was hanging out at my place, said, "I think my mum would want to see a scanned photo of her recipe, too."

This is for you Mrs. A.
