SUMMER FRUIT CAKE



Summer Fruit Cake image

Delicious way to use summer fruits. Although you can use frozen fruits, I like to use fresh summer fruit in this cake. My favorites are peaches, apricots and plums. Original recipe was printed in Bon Appetit (August, 1981).

NEW ZEALAND SUMMER FRUIT CAKE



New Zealand Summer Fruit Cake image

This is a delicious cake that was presented on TV one breakfast show as a way of using up all those summer fruits that grow on the trees at the bottom of the garden. You can also used tinned fruit in the winter if you dont have any fresh fruit at hand. The top is just 2 cups of mixed summer fruits -eg apricots, peaches, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, nectarines, bananas, etc -anything that you have at hand will do. Serve with whipped cream, yoghurt or icecream for an impressive dinner party delight. (this is similar to the other summer fruit cake recipe except this version has butter,less costly ingredients and an easier topping).
