A nutty, sweet, fruity cake with an Aussie native twist! By adding some of our Strawberry Gum Powder, it adds an extra sweet, strawberry flavour that compliments the fresh strawberries and cherries in this cake perfectly. The addition of another Aussie favourite – the macadamia – brings a nutty, buttery note making the most wonderful texture.

Top with loads of fresh cherries, dust with icing sugar and serve with cream, ice cream or yoghurt.

This cake is an excellent one for Christmas time to showcase those wonderful cherries in season. It also keeps well in the fridge or an air-tight container so can be enjoyed throughout the season!
