This Old-Fashioned English Seed Cake is egg-free and dairy-free, but is prepared with everyday pantry ingredients, and has all the flavours and textures of a classic seed cake - soft, spongy, fluffy, moist, sweet, buttery - with similarities to a Madeira or Pound Cake. As this is a Classic English Seed Cake it contains caraway seeds, but if preferred switch these out and go with poppy seeds for an Old-Fashioned Poppy Seed Cake.
