“Eid dessert goals? Achieved!
Serving up heavenly vibes
with this
Fruits of Jannah Tres Leches Cake”
So, what exactly are the Fruits of Jannah? ‘Jannah’ means
Paradise in Arabic, and both the Qur’aan and Hadith
(Islam’s holy book and teachings)
describe them as “fruits of Paradise”.
Although interpretations may vary, fruits such as dates, figs, grapes,
and pomegranates, along with honey, are explicitly mentioned in the
Qur’aan.
Now, back to this type of cake, which, by the way, totally blew up on
TikTok around Ramadan! My sister mentioned it, and I thought, “Yep, this
one’s going on my must-bake list.”
I actually managed to get my hands on the fruits I needed (struggle in
Botswana sometimes), so I immediately made it. But you know me,
I had to put my own spin on it.
I’m absolutely obsessed with Tres Leches (yes, I could happily
swim in milk-soaked cake), so this Fruits of Jannah Tres Leches was
born—with a cheeky twist in the whipped cream. As you can see, I had fun shooting it too lol.
Now, full disclosure—I left out the olives and bananas. Olives on
a cake? That’s a no from me (unless you go with an olive oil cake
recipe). And bananas… well, we just don’t vibe.
That said, you can totally get creative with it! Use fresh or dried
fruit, mix up textures, go wild, it’s your cake, your vibe.
And just to be clear, this isn’t a religious cake or anything symbolic. It’s just a deliciously soft sponge milk cake dressed up in fruit that
happens to be linked to Paradise. Anyone can enjoy it, because it’s
just a heavenly excuse to bake and eat some cake.
Also, fair warning: this is not a one-slice kind of cake. I
served it at brunch, and the guests polished off 3/4 of it immediately!
It’s got main character energy, and it will be repeated.
