Dry Fruit Mushroom Tea Cake
Loaded with dry fruits and mushroom powder — a denser, richer tea cake.
A good gifting or occasion cake — the dense fruit-and-nut load keeps well for several days.
About this product
This is the densest and richest cake in our range, built around a heavy dry fruit load — raisins, chopped cashew and almond folded generously through the batter — rather than a lighter sponge-forward approach. It eats closer to a festive fruit cake than an everyday tea cake, and we'd position it that way: this is the one to buy for a celebration or a gifting occasion rather than a daily snack alongside chai.
Mushroom powder here stacks with the natural protein content of the nuts rather than doing the work alone, which is why this is the one tea cake in our range carrying a high-protein tag — the combination of dry fruit and mushroom powder genuinely pushes the protein count higher than our vanilla or chocolate cakes, though we'd note it's still a cake, sugar and butter included, not a health food positioned to replace a meal.
Because of the dense fruit and nut load, this cake also keeps noticeably longer at room temperature than our lighter tea cakes before drying out — dried fruit holds moisture differently than a plain sponge crumb does — which makes it a reasonable choice if you're buying ahead of an occasion rather than planning to eat it within a day or two.
