Maybe sheetcake is the American word for slice in Australia? I love learning things like that, thanks.

A layer cake is stacked and then served by the slice.

It was on the K-mart site.

julieann: A long while back you posted a recipe for Easy Sauce by Reg and Jack Absalom, I just wanted to say thank you so much, and to mention that it is pretty good for making tomato relish. I am an Aussie living in the USA. No easy access to Ezy Sauce.JulieAnn Sept 19, 2015 1:25:44 GMT 10
