Can you bake with this like cocoa powder?

Most chocolate cake recipes say that you must cocoa not drinking chocolate but many years ago (in the late 1950s!!!) my Grandmother was given a chocolate cake recipe from Cadburys using Drinking Cocoa. It's the best choc cake I've ever tried. I've tweaked it into an all-in-one mix to make life easier: Sift 4 ounces self-raising flour, 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder and 2 tablespoons drinking chocolate into a large bowl. Add 4 ounces of soft butter (use margarine if you must but why spoil the cake for the sake of a few pennies), 5 ounces brown sugar, 2 eggs and 2 tablespoons of Drinking Chocolate dissolved in 1 1/2 tablespoons of warm water. Beat until well until mixed and soft and fluffy. Turn into a 7inch round cake tin which is line with baking parchment ( or greaseproof paper but in that case grease the paper with butter). Bake for 3/4 of an hour in an oven pre-heated to (British) gas mark 3 (335 degrees fahrenheit - sorry, I don't know the centigrade alternative). When cooked allow to cool then spread some Cadbury's dairy Milk Chocolate on the top and let it set before cutting. For special occasions (like my birthday!) Grannie used to split the cake and sandwich in some apricot jam.

When is the expiration date?

Hi there is 2 years use by date hope this helps pearl

Is there a plastic spoon in the tin for measuring?

I am afriad there is no measuring spoon inside the pack. Thx.

You need to change the description on the 1kg tins. They are "Original" not "Instant"

On my container it says 'instant'
