Louise Cake

Now we had a meeting the other day with Chris who writes all our label descriptions amongst other things.She frontsup with all her notes and a cake tin full of. Now if you had a 30 year old mulberry in your garden you'd remember your mother making louise cake LOl so I dredged out the good ole Edmonds cook book so that you too could taste a blast from the past.Its meant to be made with raspberry jam but you you could use some of that home made plum jam instead.
