Vintage Banana Tuesday: Day 14 - South Sea Island Cake
Isn't this cover amazing? It would make a really cool fabric. I used this for the background of my blog! 😉 |
The very name alone for this 1940 recipe from the Royal Cook Book evokes such an iconic image, doesn't it?? I was looking for more banana recipes and opened up this cookbook pamphlet from the Royal Baking Powder Company to just see what it had to offer. I was surprised by how many recipes used bananas, so you'll be seeing more of these in the future. Hooray!
This recipe really caught my eye because of the exotic title and the use of banana and pineapple together. It's a no brainer to me.
And don't you think sprinkling the top of the cake with a bit of coconut would be divine? Yum! I'm going to have to try this one!
