Dried Cherry Tomato and Yuzu Cake 番茄干柚子蛋糕
I love munching dried cherry tomatoes as they are sweet and a little sourish to my liking. Something popped into my mind while I was munching half way ~~ why not add this little tomatoes into my bakes? So I quickly flipped through some of my cookbooks and I saw this recipe from a Chinese cookbook 经典100 using yuzu paste and orange cointreau as the main ingredients ~~ mmmm… this must be good to go with my dried cherry tomatoes! Without second thoughts, I baked this Dried Cherry Tomato and Yuzu Cake yesterday with slight modification. I’m very pleased with the result, the cake was soft and the combination of flavours, perfect, love it to bits. Definitely a keeper cake that can be baked as a gift for Chinese New Year.

HI Ann

octopusmum
Wow! this is an amazing bundt cake! I love the combinations & always wanted to try & bake a cake or pie with yuzu. But I can't seem to get hold of this yuzu juice or even paste. Will love to try this recipe of yours . Very interesting & intriguing!
This cake sounds like a winner wiht the yuzu and orange cointreau. I have never tried dried cherry tomatoes but they sure make a pretty garnish for your cake. 🙂
Hi Ann, delicious cake! Where may I buy yuzu paste? PH selling it? Would love to bake this if I have dried cherry tomatoes and yuzu paste in my pantry now.
Hi Wendy, PH has the dried cherry tomatoes and you can get the yuzu paste at most supermarket or the Korea shop next to PH Bencoolen outlet.
Hello Ann, thank you for the information!
This cake looks so yummy with a rather unique combination of flavours. Lovely clicks too!
Thanks Cheah!
This is by far the most interesting flavored bundt cake! I love any cake with liqueur, and are those tomatoes candied? They look wonderful!
Hi Paula, yes it's candied. So good for munching 😀
i've never heard nor seen dried cherry tomatoes. They must be good for munching too i guess!
Lena, Really hope you can try the dried cherry tomatoes one day. You'll definitely love it!
This sound so refreshing! lovely cake!
May I know where to buy yuzu paste? Thank you 🙂
Chloe
The yuzu paste or jam is available at Fairprice Extra or at Korea store.
Dried cherry tomato and yuzu, two flavors I must try. Your cake sounds fantastic and your photos are stunning.
Beautiful cake Ann. You continue to amaze me with all your beautiful bakes.
Thank you for your compliment, Veron 🙂
This bundt is so beautiful!!! I love the use of the dried cherry tomatoes, so inventive!!!! Love it!
Gorgeous cake and so creative. Lovely photos too!
I'd love to taste this. It looks and sounds amazing!
Interesting cake with the dried cherry tomatoes. I'm going to have to look for them in the stores and markets I visit. Thanks for sharing this recipe for #BundtAMonth
Thanks Renee.
I've never had dried cherry tomatoes before! They sound like they must have been such a nice complement to the citrus in this cake though. Now I need to go find some and make this cake. It looks gorgeous and I'm so intrigued by the flavor combinations. Lovely!
Thank you Kate for your compliment 🙂
What an interesting combination. I never would have thought of dried cherry tomatoes in a cake, but now I'm intrigued. I guess since they're a fruit anyway that it makes sense. And we put zucchini in cake. Why not? Gorgeous addition to #BundtaMonth!
Hi Carrie, Thank you for dropping by. Yes why not put zucchini in cake. I even baked a noodle cake once!
Hi Ann! Superb bake and photography!
Oh, I want to eat this cake, Ann! I saw a pan today with like 8-10 mini bundt cake pan inside ans it is selling like $35, quickly put it back to the shelf. I really like the bundt cake shape and I think I should be able to handle well with the mini size, haha! This will certainly be everyone's favourite cake if it is served to family & friends! Like how you decorate the cake with some dried tomatoes!
Jessie, The price you saw is so cheaper than here. The one at Totts is above $40.
Thanks for your compliment 🙂
Wow! What an interesting combination of flavors, Ann! Your pictures are stunning. Thanks for baking along this month! 🙂
Thank you! Hopefully I can join Bundt-a-month this month on time.
Oh, I miss Phoon Huat! They do have most everything. Your cake looks delicious!
好好看又有我爱的口味蛋糕。。。我来喝kopi了
来来来。。。我们一起喝kopi和吃蛋糕 🙂
Beautiful cake! Love the idea of putting dried cherry tomatoes. Will try soon!

This looks inviting, can I have a slice for my tea please?
Sure, will reserve two slices for you 🙂

Cass, 可以一试,因为这蛋糕不会很甜,我觉得很好吃 🙂
I've seen some dried cherry tomato here and thought it was dried strawberry until I've asked the shop owner 😀 Your cake looks very pretty ! I wouldn't mind a slice or three ?! lol
Anne, you must buy the dried cherry tomato. I'm sure you'll love it!

Hi Ann, where can I buy dried cherry tomatoes, never seen them before. Such special flavours on a cake.
Thanks for the Apple Notepad and Chocoholic keychain, received them yesterday. They are so cute. My two girls crowded around the parcel and asked me to give it to them! :p
Mich, you're welcome 🙂 Sorry that I did not write a proper notes on the card as I was hurrying to rush to the post office in that morning.
Nice! What a way to improvise and adding a new interesting ingredient. Definitely a crowd pleaser I bet! Thanks for sharing this as I need to bake a pound cake on 初三,this cake looks very potential! Lol!
Hopefully your guests will enjoy this cake.

Velva, Thank you for your compliment 🙂
Oh, this is the first time I came across having "tomatoes" for the bake of a cake! If only I could get hold of dried cherry tomato here. Your cake look so beautifully done. I love it. PH really has everything under one roof for the bakers, right?
Hi Mel, I think you can also find PH in Malaysia under name of Red Man.
哇!非常漂亮的蛋糕,一定很好味了。。
是不错吃,可以试试看。
Once a friend of mine gave me some dried cherry tomatoes and I love it (her hubby bought it in Shanghai). But I bought once in Singapore tasted awefully sweet.
Do let me know where I get get some that is not so terribly sweet.
Thanks
Edith, I only bought the dried tomatoes from PH. Have not got it from other places before.
