I AM BACK!!! Hope all of you had a great valentines!! After a busy and fun filled trip in Bangalore, I am back to my quite world in Dar. Thanks to my sister's wedding, My days were so busy that I am having a tough time getting adjusted to the quite here. Even though I am missing my folks back home, it feels absolutely great to be back to my space and blogging.
This recipe has been lying in my drafts for a long time now. I have always loved the eating mangoes with custard. When I came across the recipe for Golden yellow from here, I decided to team it up with mangoes and make it an up side down cake. The cake turned out fabulous and it was liked by Purvi and her friends as well. The only thing that was better than the cake itself was the delightful expression on the little girls faces.
