This is the cake that I've been wanting to brand for the longest of time.
I recieved this cookbook from Aunt Grace for Christmas when I was 15. I was totally taken past times the hold back of the cherry cake featured inward the book. During that time, fresh cherries are unheard of. I had my showtime gustation of fresh cherries when my friend Yoke Waie gave me to a greater extent than or less afterwards his parents returned from a vacation inward Australia. That was when I was 18. My 2d fourth dimension eating this was when I was 21, buying 100gm for RM15 at Petaling Street alongside my as well as thence boyfriend. Expensive right? But it's thence difficult to come upwards past times that I didn't assist much for its price. That ex-boyfriend paid for my cherries :p
These few years, the toll of cherries cause got gone downward a lot, making it to a greater extent than affordable. Last twelvemonth I didn't brand this, thence this season, I merely cause got to motility out this recipe that has been bugging me for eighteen years. The recipe came inward decilitres as well as I had to convert the total from a 12 inch pan to a nine inch pan.
