I haven't really had much luck with upside-down cakes until now - I once tried a recipe for upside-down rhubarb and it ended up in a disaster.<br /><br />But this? It's home baking at its homeliest. Solid, comforting cake topped with a layer of slightly tart berries carmelised to perfection. Yummy yummy.<br /><br />One warning, though. I used a round springform tin and lined the bottom with baking paper, like the recipe suggests. I repeat: I lined the bottom only. Pardon the dodgy expression, but once I put the cake in the oven, the juices really started to flow. A spoonful after spoonful of boiling fruit juice started leaking out of the tin, and then proceeded to boil and carbonise at the bottom of the oven (I had to scrub it clean afterwards. Not fun). So, based on this experience, I strongly advise lining the whole tin with paper, sides and everything.morrinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-14690282572714905432009-08-20T13:54:54.058+01:002009-08-20T13:54:54.058+01:00Just look at that beautiful colour from the berrie...Just look at that beautiful colour from the berries!!
