Plum Cake

Plum Cake is a rich, sweet dessert that traditionally contains whole plums and a blend of spices, making it a delightful treat all year round, but particularly during the winter holidays. Its robust flavors combine the sweetness of plums with warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, often offset with a hint of citrus zest. Every bite can be a journey of different layers as it features a moist, fluffy cake base filled with juicy plum pieces and a crispy, crumble topping. This cake is perfect for pairing with a cup of coffee or tea and makes a delicious finale to a meal.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Plum Cake expire?
Homemade plum cake usually stays fresh for up to 3-4 days at room temperature. If you store it in the fridge, it can last up to 1-2 weeks. If you bought a commercially packaged plum cake, check the best before date on the package. After opening, it should be consumed within a week. For a frozen plum cake, it can last for up to 2-3 months.
How do you tell if Plum Cake is bad?
To determine if your plum cake is bad, first look at it. If you see mold, discoloration or it appears dry and hard, it's expired. Then smell it. If it has an off smell or a sour smell, then it is no longer safe to eat. If you're still uncertain, you can take a small bite. If the taste is off or sour, it's best to discard it.
Tips for storing Plum Cake to extend shelf life
• Always store plum cake in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out. • If you want to keep your plum cake fresh for longer, wrap it in cling film or aluminum foil before placing it in the container. • If storing in the fridge, allow the cake to come to room temperature before serving for improved taste and texture. • Always remember to reseal the container properly after each use. • Freezing plum cake? Slice it into individual portions before freezing. Thaw each slice in the fridge overnight when you want to consume it, this prevents you from having to defrost the whole cake every time.
