    1. [DVHH] Cake recipes?
    2. Linda Sohl
    3. Hi everyone, Something reminded me this morning of the cakes that my oma used to make. I don’t seem to have the recipes, and I’m not finding anything comparable online, so I wonder if any of you are familiar with these and can help me out. The first was her rice cake. It was a simple affair that she would bake in a spring form pan (but then, she baked almost everything in a spring form pan, so maybe that was just her habit :-) ). Sometimes we’d have a slice cold, for breakfast, with a little cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top; sometimes we’d warm it up and drizzle some raspberry syrup over a slice, for dessert. I know for a fact it had no flour in it, but I’m not sure of the proportions of other ingredients. The other was a nutty sponge cake, usually eaten plain for a light dessert, or a snack. I’m reasonably sure she used walnuts for this, but don’t know what else went into it. It’s probably been more than 30 years since I had either of these. I’d love to make them and surprise my dad over the holidays. Cheers, Linda
