In the event that you’re actually looking for something to read, here is a link to an article in the New York Times on the history of Black Cake or fruit Cake for your reading pleasure. In Dominica at Christmastime, black cake is everywhere. Although black cake is descended from the British plum pudding, for Dominicans, baking of fruit cake is a annual ritual which evokes a longing feeling for Dominica during the holidays season.

I purchases a slice of Dominica cake in New York and it taste so good; it was a white cake with icing; now the store is out of business and I cannot find anywhere in Brooklyn to buy the Dominica cake. Does anyone know where the Dominica community is in Brooklyn near Flatbush. ??
