I spent a day with my Mum yesterday and whilst we were queueing at a café, I spotted a very delicious looking cake. It was called Passion Cake. I'd never heard of it before, so upon further research, found out it was actually a variation of carrot cake.
I was pleasantly surprised when today, after offering to bake a carrot cake for the women's tea and cake afternoon at church I came across the recipe in one of my cook books. Feeling a bit bold I thought I'd experiment and give it a go and if it was a success I'd take it along. If not, I'd have to admit defeat and take along a shop bought one. It also has banana and walnut and I can say, from tasting the leftover mix in the bowl, the banana is detectable, but not overpowering. How it tasted in the baked sponge I can't tell as it had all gone by the time I went to get a slice!
My cake stand came home empty. So I'm taking that as a thumbs up.
