Caramelised Apple Spice Cake
A delicious and innovative cake which I made for my son's birthday last year.I used caramalized apples and toasted walnuts with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and dry ginger.I didn't use any icing as it didn't need any.The taste was so good and yummy that everyone relish it.
Who doesn't like cakes.At least in my family everybody loves to have it as dessert.I often bake different cakes for them.But this time as it was my son's birthday and he is a very fussy eater I wanted to bake something delicious and an innovative cake for him. He doesn't like heavy cakes with lots of icing or fancy decorations. So I thought to make something with fruits and nuts. I went through a lot of recipes and then finally decided to make Martha Stewart's Apple Spiced Cake with little variations.And I am happy with the outcome. My son liked it very much and took some pieces to office for his friends also.When he relish something I thought I got the fruit for my love and labour done for him.
