Moist cakes can be achieved quickly, it is by adding fruits or vegetable puree, such as pumpkin or carrot. My carrot cake is using cooked carrots which have been braised until soft then meshed up to a puree. The cake is moist and smooth in texture.

My pumpkin loaf with candy pumpkins is very moist too. First, make the pumpkin candy, by cooking diced pumpkin until soft, keep them cool to dry. Now make the sugar syrup with the quantities of 2 cups sugar with cup water. When the syrup is ready, put the cooked diced pumpkin in, continue cooking, bring to simmer for 1 minute. Take the heat off, keep the pumpkin in syrup
Until it's cold. Take the cooked pumpkin one by one, rest on a baking paper to dry. Keep refrigerated until the pumpkin is needed.

Zucchini is another vegetable which celebrates moist cake, add zucchini puree to the chocolate cake mixture, you will have a moist delightful chocolate cake.

Brioche with topping |
This month I decided to share this brioche dressed with poached fruits in syrup. It is delicious to serve at room temperature, which is suitable for morning tea for our sports club.
Pull apart the brioche, sliced and buttered, spread with homemade strawberry jam and put the sliced poached orange, apple and pear on top. Rayner suggested that small slices are better, otherwise will be too much and too rich to be eaten in the middle of the sport.
