Have you ever had a friendship cake? Name comes from starter sets to give your friends to your cake, so friendship cake. Each batch of fruit will make three cakes and 3 starter sets, one for myself and 2 friends to give. This is my wife's specialty, and he makes these a few times a year!
If you do not have a starter kit you can make this connection and start your own!
Cake is nice and moist and full of fruit and I love it with a little butter spread on it.
