Nonetheless, I would like to thank Michelle of Bake-En for hosting this week's TWD. I chose to go with peaches because the grocery store didn't have any fresh cherries and Jeff doesn't like plums (the actual name of this is Dimply Plum Cake). I also added lemon zest to the brown sugar-based batter.
To see more successful attempts at this, visit the TWD blogroll. Check back next week when we make Creme Brulee.
Good idea with the peaches, I think it would taste better than the plums.
ReplyDeleteWell, it looks good. I wonder why it wasn't a bigger hit.
ReplyDeleteI loved the dimple thighs comment you are so right! Sorry it wasn't a big hit but it looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, how sad that no one but you even gave it a chance. Your pictures look lovely, though. I made it with cherries that were fresh before I tossed them in the freezer and I added lime zest. We really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteWell, it looks beautiful -- all peachy . . . and dimply. Even though this was presented as a summer fruit dessert, somehow I see it working better with "fall" fruits like apples and pears. I used plums, but would try something else next time. Oh well, on to next week!
ReplyDeleteoh....that sucks. but i do love the peach idea! i'll bet you could've sprinkled a little brown sugar on top of the peaches and it would've caramelized just a little. and i totally love the peach ring idea, with little bits of cake coming through the holes.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cake! I love peaches!
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks pretty! Oh, well, hope next week is better for you.
ReplyDeleteWhat is wrong with your colleagues, it looks so pretty! I read that this cake wasn't a hit with many of the TWD crowd too. Pity. I was hoping to give it a go. I made a Plum Torte recently, adapting Oangette's, and it was really good.
