You will also need...
Preheat the oven to 180°C, (160°C for fan ovens), Gas Mark 4.
Mix the dates and the bicarbonate of soda. Pour the hot water over and leave to soak while you make the batter. Whisk together the butter and the sugar, then add eggs, one at a time (don’t worry if it curdles). Mix in the flour, and then stir in the date mixture and vanilla. Pour into the prepared tin.
Bake in the oven for about 50 minutes, until springy to the touch and cooked through.
Spoon the caramel into a microwave safe bowl and heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring often (or heat gently on the hob).
