Chocolate and Plum Cake

The past month, I have been making, baking and eating some variation of Plum Cake, but this is one of the most delicious cakes I have made in a while. 
As much as D likes chocolate, he is not really a fan of chocolate flavoured things but he also adored this too.
The sponge was almost fondant like, perhaps my whipping and whisking made a difference this time.
I am sharing this We Should Cocoa that celebrates  six years of sharing chocolate sweet and savoury recipes; and Bake of the Week hosted by Casa Costello .. 
For the Chocolate and Plum Cake follow the recipe here, but reduce the flour by 50g and replace it with 50g cocoa powder.

  4. I'm loving plums at the moment - So easy to pair up with other ingredients yet perfectly transportable as a snack. Brilliant recipe. Thanks so much for joining in with #BakeoftheWeek once again - Great to be back x

  5. I'm so envious of all those plum cakes Shaheen. I take it you have a plum tree? This sounds like a wonderful cake - if only I had some plums! Thank you for sharing it with We Should Cocoa. It seems very fitting on a sixth anniversary to have some of the early participants joining in.
