Every year I look forward to making this Blackcurrant cake. It is such a treat to grow/harvest & bake with your very own homegrown Blackcurrants.

My day starts with a swing of my basket as I set about picking the most perfect shiny little jewels, my Blackcurrant bush has years of maturity behind it, a prolific heavy cropper, providing buckets of these beauties every year.
Easy to make, this no fuss cake, looks as good before as it does after.
I like to eat mine while its still warm, the still gooey, burst Blackcurrants inside are so delicious!
Give it a try and let me know how you get on in the comments or tag me on Instagram, I would love to see your creations.
