Description
In this cake, you can use any dried fruits to your taste, and you can also add nuts. Breadcrumbs can be replaced with semolina, and vegetable oil can be substituted with butter; we use this to prevent the cake from sticking to the pan. The finished cake can be dusted with cocoa, nut crumbs, or left plain and glazed. It all depends on your taste preferences and the availability of time and ingredients. The cake is delicious both warm and cold. Enjoy your meal!
