This Tennessee Hummingbird Cake is a really popular cake in Tennessee but they couldn’t keep the secret! It’s now very popular with anybody who has ever tasted it. This is a very old recipe and has to be one of the best cakes of all time!
Deliciously moist with the bananas and pineapple. It’s great straight from the refrigerator!
I like to top it off with Aunt Darlene’s Cream Cheese Frosting. The pecans and the coconut in the frosting are a perfect companion to the bananas and pineapple in the cake.
Delicious cake even without the frosting! Give it a try.
You just gotta’ frost this cake with Aunt Darlene’s Cream Cheese Frosting!!!
