Description: Now already been made twice in this one week, this yum fruit cake is our new favourite! Very comforting and refreshing with coconut, it tastes great served with your everyday hot beverage or even served warm as a dessert with cream, yoghurt or some vanilla icecream. Feel free to substitute plums with any other stone fruit or berries.
