Fresh Plum Cake

Fresh Plum Cake – A rustic yet elegant cake that is easy to make and easy to love! Serve it in the summer with seasonal plums, and around the holidays.

A hearty, yet elegant cake that needs no cream or sauce to perfect it.

The plums add a juicy tang to this dense buttery cake, so it’s flavorful enough to stand alone.

That makes this Fresh Plum Cake a perfect dessert to take to a barbecue or summer party when stone fruit is fresh and in season. This is just the kind of dessert I’d wrap up and put in my picnic basket for an evening concert at the park. No hassle, big impact.

You can also make Fresh Plum Cake, with peaches or apricots instead of plums!
