Plum Cake is a rich, fruity dessert traditionally associated with European cuisine, particularly during festive seasons like Christmas. Despite the name, it often includes dried fruits such as raisins, currants, and prunes rather than fresh plums, soaked in rum or brandy for enhanced flavor. The batter typically consists of flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and a mix of warming spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. While Plum Cake is loved for its dense texture and aromatic sweetness, its nutritional profile varies based on preparation. It can provide energy from carbohydrates and a modest amount of vitamins from dried fruits, but it is also high in saturated fats and sugars due to the butter and added sweeteners. Some recipes include nuts, contributing healthy fats and proteins. Overall, Plum Cake is best enjoyed in moderation as an indulgent treat rather than a daily staple.
