Last night I made this Plum Cake, and it was really easy and amazing! Even better, it was so pretty that I was inspired to display it on this sweet little cake stand (a bridal shower gift from my friend Jan). You can find a similar one here.

Here is the recipe, if you’re interested. It’s completely vegan and uses yeast, which is something I’ve never seen before in a cake! The yeast made the cake light and fluffy (there was also baking powder), and gave it the slightest bread-y feeling. The plums were not at all ripe when I bought them, but they softened up and were SO delicious.

I guess this is my final good-bye to the fruits of summer!
