"My nine year old son made this cake as described for his dad who adores maple syrup and pecans. This was an easy cake to make, fantastic to look at and tasted light and full of flavour . The whole family enjoyed this cake and I have passed the recipe on to so many people who are keen to try. As long as you know people are not allergic to nuts this was fun when offering people the cake and asking them to try and recognise the flavours and texture, they were totally shocked when they learned they had eaten parsnips and it is a fabulous way to get your children to eat veg. Fantastic, well done. "
