But in keeping with the spirit of TWD, I mentioned the plum cake a lot and borrowed your photo giving credit where due. Some bakers weren't impressed but you've inspired me to add the sugar last & bake this morning. So here I go. I will use WW flour & fresh plums. <BR/><BR/>Thanks Nancy for your enthusiasm and tips.27Susanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00023811289766218370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-30872913302471004752008-09-24T10:09:00.000-04:002008-09-24T10:09:00.000-04:00Your plum cake came out beautifully!!Your plum cake came out beautifully!!Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14512165377482951306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-81612919867598461152008-09-24T09:21:00.000-04:002008-09-24T09:21:00.000-04:00Hey Nancy!

However did you know that I am on the hunt for recipes that call for lots and lots of cardamom? I got my cardamom at a local big-box supermarket (Bruno's) that had two cardamom choices -- one for $14.99 and one for something like $11.99 (I actually bought the less expensive of the two, but you know, writer's embellishment and all . . .) Just out of morbid curiosity, I checked the prices at another, smaller local chain (Western) I happened to be in, and the cardamom was again over $10. I have not checked the prices at my usual haunts, Publix or Wholefoods. I cannot BELIEVE you found this in the $4-$7 range at Whole Paycheck, of all places!! Were they small jars?<BR/><BR/>In any event, between reading your write-up on this cake, and trying Julie's (of peanut butter and julie fame) pear and cinnamon version at work, I'm convinced that I need to try this again using better fruit.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18212460245206539222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-56311479682138328062008-09-24T08:56:00.000-04:002008-09-24T08:56:00.000-04:00The tart pan makes that cake look so cute!
