This cake is quite dense so it is important not to overbake it so it does not crumble. I found this cake interesting and colorful so I was really excited to try it and man...it really tastes like Christmas. It is known to be a specialty cake in Newfoundland Canada so I adapted the recipe from RockRecipes.com. Thank you. Please subscribe to my channel for more videos.
