  1. This was a wonderful recipe...I made it for a friend for her birthday...and I chose this because she loves maple flavor things. She realllllly liked this...Only thing is that as I made the glaze...it looked as it was very chunky paste...instead of smooth. so I put in a couple more tsps of milk...and I got the spread I needed to put it on. It definitely taste like those glaze they put on donuts!! :) Thanks for sharing this recipe!!
     
  2. Nice recipe; thanks for sharing. It went together easily and was enjoyed by my book club.
     
  3. This was very good. Just the right amount of maple and even better with the glaze.
     
  4. This is one of my favourite cakes{because I love maple}. In Oman, I was not lucky enough to get maple extract, so I used to make this cake using maple syrup;). It always would be over before I knew it! This one's a definite keeper!
     
  5. Mmmm...outstanding mapley flavor! The cake rose nice and high, was very moist and delicious. The icing reminded me of maple bar doughnuts! I christened my new stoneware fluted pan with this cake. Thanks Inez, it's definitely a keeper!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
