Cajun Syrup Cake (GÂteau De Sirop) image

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."
