Monday 17. of September 2007 Boiled Pineapple Fruit Cake
I first began making this cake as a teenager in the 1970's and it's still a favourite in my household. It doesn't take quite as long to bake as some of the richer fruit cakes but it's moist, delicious and very simple to make.
Friday 31. of August 2007 Orange Syrup Cake
This recipe is adapted from another syrup cake recipe I have, basically to make it simpler. This is a good dessert recipe, particularly over the winter months when citrus is abundant and delicious. Serve warm with natural yoghurt...
Tuesday 31. of July 2007 Best Ever Banana Cake
I've cooked many banana cakes over the years but this is the best recipe I've used. It's adapted from a Stephanie Alexander recipe but I've cut down the saturated fat and the sugar content.
Saturday 28. of July 2007 Lime Syrup Cake
From May until about February each year we have an abundance of limes. This cake is a perfect way to use some of them. Serve with homemade vanilla ice cream or natural yoghurt.
Tuesday 24. of July 2007 Pumpkin Fruitcake
Looking for a recipe to use leftover pumpkin? This is a fruitcake with a difference. Use any combination of dried fruit that you prefer.
