Breezy Fruit Cake
African style cake with fruits!

If you are like us, then you get worried about all the carbs that get into your system when you munch a slice of cake. Your days of worrying are over! We are here to show you how to eat cake and not feel guilty.

Add fruits to your batter! Mr N. is so nutrition conscious so he wasn’t a big fan of our constant baking. We decided to make cakes more appealing by reducing the quantity of sugar and jazzing them up with fruits. Since then, he has been a huge fan!

You can use just any fruit you have in your kitchen. In this cake, we used apple, pineapple, strawberries and blueberries and oh, coconut flakes! Yum! Yum!! Yum!!!
