“If baking is any labour at all, it’s a labour of love. A love that gets passed from generation to generation.” - Regina Brett
We bought some delicious dried cranberries a couple of weeks ago and have been using them in cooking and baking. Their tart favour adds zing to a lot of rather ordinary recipes. Here is a rather easy cake using these berries. If you don’t particularly like them you can substitute other berries or glacé cherries.
