Did I really get inspiration from that!

Hello my sweets! Did you enjoy yesterday's blog? Little Self promotion for my March of Babies walk. Did you notice the cute baby? Well that is the main reason I'm doing this, she along with both of mother and father mean a great deal to me!  Isn't she adorable!

Ok So now for Today's treat! How many of you watch the Show Jersey Shore? I don't normally watch it, I find it to be stupid, but I don't judge those who like it. As I always say to each their own.  Last night I was having a bit of trouble sleeping, and was flipping through the channels, and then I came across the show. They were making fun of one of the girls because she was having issues lets say in the bathroom area.  My first thought was, well she needs a nice big slice of my Grandma Kate's Prune Cake! Ok so it was a funny thought,  but my this yummy prune cake wouldn't really make her go to the lavatory, well maybe if she ate the whole thing by herself! I was able to get to sleep eventually but when I woke up this morning I was wondering about that cake.

For those of you who are a little skeptical, I understand.  Prunes tend to have a little slight negative connotation making people think oh lordy I'm going be in the bathroom all night! To tell you the truth just about 90% of things can have that very same occurrence, so stop worrying that a little prune will make you go running for the office.  Also the benefits of prunes are amazing, and they are a fulfilling healthy little treat.  And this cake is actually a very delish, moist, yummy, flavorful treat! 

Now you can find a lot of recipes online for this cake, however I used an old recipe of my Grandmothers.  Its got a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but its well worth all the hard work.   You can make it as a bundt, or as a loaf, or even layer cakes. Ice it, do whatever you want with this flavor cake, you can't go wrong.  In my opinion its different. How many people do you know are going around making a prune cake? Try it, and I guarantee people will enjoy it, and be pleased its not the norm.  Its also a recipe that the more you add to it, the better it gets.

Ok so from a crazy show, I got a crazy thought, and decided to make a cake not normally on the top of most baking list. However the results are fantastic. The flavor of each slice only magnifies the aroma through out the house from making it.  I lightly dusted the top with some confectioners sugar and it wasn't long before everyone in my house was waiting for a piece. I suggest next time you come knocking on my door you ask for a piece! Till Tomorrow my Sweets!

Happy Baking from Bradley Sweets!
