Chocolate cake?

Can anyone tell me why recipe for chocolate cake which always turned out so soft and moist in south Africa always flops in England? Is it the ingredients, altitude, oven etc? How can I adjust it?

  1. humidity has a big part in it also...try adjusting the oven temp and don't over bake it
  2. I agree, it's the humidity that effects it. Maybe try making your room really humid! j/k lol
  3. England is too wet a climate for your cake. Adjust the amount of flour by 1/4 cup and see if that doesn't help.
    Otherwise get a dehumidifier for the kitchen.
