My sis and me came up with this cake recipe when asked by a friend to bring something to her birthday party. It is very moist with a lovely cherry poppy seed flavour and a sweet crunch from the crumble topping. This makes one big cake (about 20 slices) and you can sub whatever fruit you like for the cherries. I think mandarin oranges would be great as well.
