Friendship cake recipe

August 10, 2008 By: Melinda

I first had Friendship Cake when I was a teenager. I loved it! My best friend gave me a cup of the starter culture, and within a few weeks everyone in the town we lived in had made it and you couldn’t give the starter away for love nor money!

Several years later, I realised that the cake was actually a form of Sourdough, and I’d been making sourdough bread for years. I had been searching the internet for a friendship cake recipe similar to the one I had as a teenager, and finally found one. I’ve changed this one drastically from the original recipe I found, however this tastes just like I remember the one in my teenage years did.

    What a great idea! I’ve never had friendship cake before. I must try this. So when I finally make my cake, I just use any recipe?

    Use the recipe on the second page of the link E, I’m not sure how you would go about using an ordinary cake recipe. It’s yummy!

    I’ve just downloaded your recipe after trying one from Bestrecipes.com.au that didn’t work (the starter had no yeast and didn’t ferment at all). I’m hoping for better results this time [g]. I see from your blog that you live in Canberra too; nice to ‘meet’ you. If you’re interested I’ll let you know how I get on.
