I followed the recipe with the exception that I used chopped pecans and I also baked it in two loaf pans. I also had to add about 2 tbsp extra milk. I don't recommend eating it the first day as it is very dry. It needs to sit a day to become a nice moist loaf. It's not my idea of a 'cake', anymore than a banana loaf is a cake and this is a bit firmer than a banana loaf. Goes great with a cup of tea or coffee though. Nice flavour, nice rich color. Took 10 minutes longer to cook than suggested by the recipe. I might make it again but will add some orange zest to compliment the orange juice in the recipe or maybe even use some frozen juice concentrate. Or both.

I was a little concerned because the combination of ingredients seemed a little odd. But, I have to say this cake is pretty good. I may have over baked it a little because it was not very moist. But all in all the flavor was good. I'll make this again but keep a better eye on it. Thanks!

I wasn't impressed. Not one person asked for the recipe - so that told me a lot too. I try something new every week, and this one I'll take a pass on.

This cake was moist and wonderful!! I had to omit the walnuts and raisins because some in my family don't care for them but the cake was still fabulous! Everyone who tried it raved about it. I served it with homemade cinnamon chip ice cream. I personally feel the nuts and raisins would make it even more exquisite.. But it was still worth 5 stars without them!!
