Hi shano
Tried out this cake today and it turned out superbly awesome. I hv no words for it. I added a little less sugar though and added 2 tbsp honey instead……still the texture was to die for. Wonderful recipe…..thankyou so much…..

Sharika..I donβt think you will this texture if you increase the quantity of dates..
You can use coconut sugar instead..

Hi Shano,
Please advice me if I want to make this cake without sugar, can I substitute it with more dates. If so how much more dates should I add??
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shano Mam, we love you and all your recipes..
I have tried this cake twice- first for my husband and baby, they loved it; so second, I made it for a friend who was a new mom.
And I want to make it again for my kid’s Birthday. So can I make it 2 days early?
Thank you in advance

Hi I am baking for the second time in my life, I bought an oven on Monday.. got it installed on Tuesday.. baked a simple chocolate cake yesterday and today made this . first – i was confused with the grms measurements as i had only bought measuring spoons and did not have a scale so googled the grms= cups and did it.. after i made the batter i realized that it was too small for my 11X9 tin so i shifted everything into a bread tin. did it exactly the way you said and it was just WOW!!. I wish i could you send you pics so u can tell me if according to you it was ok?
Thanks and Much LOve

hi Geena.
You can follow the same procedure. Chop the dates slightly larger..The batter is not thick enough to hold uncooked dates.The dates will sink ..Happy Baking

Hi Shano
Your dates CAKE looks very yummy. I love dates CAKE. I like to have with a bits of dates in the CAKE. By reading the Recipe I think it don’t have pieces of dates in between ,right.
If I want dates pieces do I ve to cook it and add in the batter or just chop it and add???
Please guide me
