Hi Bridget,
I love plum cakes sold in Indian bakeries. I have been looking for a recipe from christmas time. I have a curious question. why is this called plum cake when it doesn't have plums in it? All the Indian style plum cake recipes don't have plums in it.. so I'm curious about the origin of this cake.. If you know, could you please let me know.
Well, plums or not, I love this cake and I'm planning to make it soon. Thanks for the recipe!
