I am definitely NOT a fruit themed desert sort of person, let alone a cake person...but I can attest, first hand, that this is one of the very BEST cakes I've ever had! Kudos! I can't wait to try making it myself! Thanks Heather!

This is probably my favorite cake. And people who try it always seem to like it. I was recently asked to share the recipe so here it is. Thank you to my friend Christina for sharing this cake - and recipe - with me a decade ago. The last time I made it I actually managed to get it out of the pan but I didn't think to take pictures. Oh well.

You'll have to let me know what you think of it, if you try it.
