This is a quick and easy cake to make and it’s great to make when friends are popping over for morning or afternoon tea. This cake is always met with surprise for how delicious it tastes as it’s not the most handsome cake on the block! It is however simple to make, healthy and a good way to get the kids eating dates if they don’t already. It worked for me!
