Kumquat Cake
Show Notes

This week on the podcast, Erin caves to curiosity and buys kumquats - a fruit she had never eaten before. She decided to bake a cake with them, and it ended up being one of our favourite cakes ever. Kumquats for the win! 

Kumquats are about the size of a grape, but pack an amazing sweet-tart citrus flavour punch. You eat them whole (but watch for seeds), and in this cake recipe, the kumquats are blended and then added in the batter. But not too smooth!  The best part of enjoying this cake is getting a chunk of tasty kumquat on your fork. 

Originally grown in China, kumquats are also grown in several other countries, including warmer areas of the United States. You might find them in stores between January and June. They're high in vitamin C and fibre and give your immune system a healthy boost. So when you see them, grab a bag and make this beautiful cake! 

Erin topped hers with a glaze, but we thought a buttercream or cream cheese icing would also be fantastic. As always, visit our website to get the recipe (link below).
