Maddy, I have just seen a great tip to stop the condensation dripping back on to the food. Place a length of paper towel across the varoma before putting lid on to steam. It was from Alyce Alexandra's cheesecake video on Super kitchen machine website ( sorry, I don't know how to link!) I got it as an email and can forward it on to you if you would like.  ;D

Thanks Kt2 & goldfish....that solution is so simple, but effective. 
it would have worked for the bugs I'm sure....oh well, the cakes still weren't fabulous tasting, but will remember this for next time  ;)

 :D Thanks AB, and yes, I will try again as it will literally bug me if I can't get it right  :P
.........EAT CAKE!

Love the cute ladybirds maddy, and look forward to seeing the next result.

Some people like those to steam little cakes in those silicon tea cup and saucers, and I saw them the other day in Red Dot for $5 ea
