Delicious cake. I loved the chopped cherries in this, which you could taste and see in every bite. Very moist and tender cake. MIne took 55 minutes exactly. I did use Zucchini, Pineapple, Ginger Jam recipe #95600,as recommended, in the icing and it was an excellent compliment to the cake - a litle tangy and a little sweet. A nice idea for a church social or ladies coffee.
