Good ideas

  • Vary the flavour of this cake by using black cherries or fresh berries instead of morello cherries, and adding 10ml grated lemon or orange zest to the batter.

  • This cake will keep well for up to two days if it is sealed properly before you store it.

  • Place the cake in the microwave for a minute or two before serving it warm as a dessert.

  • Light sour cream contains about 40 percent less fat than regular sour cream because it is made from a mixture of milk and cream rather than just cream. Why not go for this alternative?
