It grew right next to the compost heap, and every summer we'd pick literally BUCKETS of mulberries. We'd eat them as they were or in fruit salad, and give away some to friends. Mum would make endless jars of mulberry jam. I hadn't caught the cooking bug back then, and now how I long for that tree. Oh the mulberry pies and cakes I would make! I never see fresh mulberries in the shops, because if I remember correctly they are extremely delicate and don't have a long shelf life at all. Dried mulberries are a really great idea, I wish my supermarket had them. I bet they made your cake extra delicious! :)Enoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-67027030241892598332016-04-25T20:27:17.698+01:002016-04-25T20:27:17.698+01:00Ooh yes, I haven't made a tea loaf in far too ...Ooh yes, I haven't made a tea loaf in far too long.

Haven't seen them for sale.<br /><br />'Tottenham cake is a sponge traybake cake, originally baked by Tottenham Quakers and covered either in pink icing (originally made from mulberries from the garden of the Tottenham Quaker House) or jam, often sprinkled with dessicated coconut then cut into squares'Snowyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944724956205419885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-79389303446746813092016-04-18T14:37:40.982+01:002016-04-18T14:37:40.982+01:00It looks fantastic!
