CAJUN CAKE

I have no idea why this is called a Cajun cake, but I do know that my family has been making it for years and you just about have to knock someone away from the pan to get a bite before it is all gone.

CAJUN CAKE

Yum! This is a warm, gooey, old-fashioned cake everyone will love. Betty comes from the heart of Cajun country where I bet this cake is found on every potluck dessert table. The cake itself is easy to make, spongy, and has bits of pineapple in every bite. The icing is thick, sugary and full of coconut and pecans. It's a tad time...

CAJUN SYRUP CAKE (GÂTEAU DE SIROP)

This is being entered for ZWT II & my source is gumbopages.com. The intro says: "This one's a classic, made from rich, dark Louisana cane syrup, like that made by Steen's Syrup Mill (my brand of choice). It's about as Cajun as it gets. Serve w/a drizzle of cane syrup if you like + some sweetened whipped cream."
