???? Post the recipe you used so people have some idea what you were
doing; what you've posted above is pretty much lacking any useful
information.

"Had to get ready flour and made it."

What does that mean? Sounds as if some lines were deleted accidentally.

Try the baking group, rec.food.baking. Seems like mostly bread going on
over there, but I'll bet you'd get good cake help, too.

Since they are in the UK, I have to assumer ready flour means
a cake mix. I hope they come back and say what went wrong
with their cake.

You have to let us know what you were doing before we can say what you
were doing wrong. What was the recipe? What was your technique? When
you say it wasn't successful, how did it turn out specifically? Folks
here are helpful if you give us a fighting chance.
