Quite a long name for a cake but I promise it is not that long to prepare and it’s a low to moderate glycemic index cake J
Hi everyone,
Yesterday was so cloudy – or should I say polluted?? – that we couldn’t see the sunlight. It was a perfect day to bake! I had some organic lemons, a pack of mascarpone and some organic mulberries in the fridge so I decided to make the lemon mascarpone cake I made two weeks ago but with blueberries.

You can actually use any kind of berries, fresh or frozen. Not only they will naturally increase the overall sweetness of the cake but they will also contribute to making it moister. You will see why.
