I am showcasing another cake from the amazing Cakes Galore by Valerie Barrett. I can’t rave enough about this book and it would be a book I'd buy to give as a gift to someone who loves to bake good cakes. This fruit cake is mixture of apples, dried cranberries, cider and cinnamon spice, a wonderful blend of flavours. You could easily serve this cake as a pudding with lashing of custard or along-side a nice cup of brew.
Hi Maria, wow what a gorgeous cake!! Spiced apple, cranberry and cider, now this is a showstopper girl & I just love it!! :) I MUST bake something from this book too you are putting me to shame here lol
