This is always a success with guest especially when they see the inside
and it's delicous also. This recipe was in the American newspaper in
Caracas, Venezuela (The Daily Journal) March 20, 1970. My children were 11
months and 2 years then. I've been making this cake ever since and they
still ask for it, even for birthdays! Typed by Martha Boskind
