THE MARKET'S SPRING FLING CAKE



The Market's Spring Fling Cake image

The Market, located at 1445 Larimar Street, Denver, Colorado makes this fabulous cake. We first had the cake at a birthday party for our friend (Mary). It was so good that I had to search for the recipe, and found it in an old Rocky Mountain News article. The RMN no longer publishes a newspaper, so I'm saving the recipe here.

Time 1h50m

Yield 12-14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 1/2 cups shredded zucchini (the zucchini was very finely shredded)
5 eggs
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
1/4 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pint strawberry, cleaned, stemmed, and sliced
4 kiwi fruits, peeled and sliced
2 mangoes, peeled and sliced
1 pint blueberries
apricot glaze (optional) or apricot jam, thinned with a bit of warm water (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Grease and flour a 10 inch cake pan.
  • Cake: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded zucchini, eggs, sugar, oil, sour cream, and vanilla.
  • Combine the DRY ingredients in another bowl; then add to zucchini mixture.
  • Batter will be rather wet and easy to pour. Pour batter into prepared cake pan and bake for 50-70 minutes.
  • Cool on rack 10 minutes, then remove cake from pan. (Note: The cake can be made a day prior and refrigerated).
  • Frosting: Whip cream cheese with butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until combined.
  • In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff, then fold the whipped cream and 1/2 t vanilla into the frosting mixture.
  • Assemble Cake: Cut cooled cake in half lengthwise (creating two layers). You can cut the cake into three layers, like they do at The Market.
  • Spread frosting over the first layer, add a layer of fruit (repeat if you are making a three-layer cake).
  • Put on the top layer and frost. The sides of the cake are NOT frosted.
  • Arrange fruit in circles (or your preferred design) over entire top of the cake, slightly overlapping the fruit. Spread apricot glaze over fruit with a pastry brush.

HAUPIA CAKE

I made this cake for our Hawaiian Luau, and several times since then! It's a pretty white cake layered with haupia filling, a Hawaiian coconut pudding. If you like coconut, this cake is really nice. Not too sweet. It's a little work, but well worth it in the end. If you don't want to do the layering, just make it in a 9x13 pan and only make a half batch of the haupia filling. Please note that preparation/cooking times are approximate and don't include chilling times.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix
1 cup coconut milk, divided
2/3 cup water
2 egg whites
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
2 cups heavy cream
6 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon lemon extract
shredded coconut (amount needed to sprinkle over entire cake)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup water
4 cups coconut milk
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

  • MAKE CAKE & WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING: Preheat oven according to directions on cake mix. Grease and flour two 8 or 9-inch round cake pans.
  • Prepare the cake according to the package directions, using 2/3 cup of the coconut milk, water, and egg whites.
  • When cakes are finished baking, cool and cut each cake horizontally into 2 layers. If your top layers are mound-shaped, cut them so they are flat. (If your layers aren't flat, your filling/frosting will seep off the cake and you'll have a mess.)
  • Soften gelatin in remaining 1/3 cup of coconut milk. Dissolve over hot water. Cool completely.
  • In a bowl, whip the heavy cream. Fold the gelatin mixture, sugar, and extract into the whipped cream. Chill frosting until it is of spreading consistency.
  • MAKE HAUPIA FILLING: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, salt, cornstarch and water. Set aside.
  • In a saucepan, heat the coconut milk. When hot, add the sugar mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and cool.
  • Chill the filling until it is of spreading consistency.
  • ASSEMBLE THE CAKE: Spread the Haupia Filling between each cake layer (spread it on pretty thickly, about 1/2" thick or so). You'll have the following layers: cake, filling, cake, filling, cake, filling, cake.
  • Refrigerate assembled cake until set.
  • Frost entire cake with whipped cream mixture. Sprinkle coconut all over the cake sides and top.
  • Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
  • NOTE: Cooking times are approximate and do not include chilling times.
