Long time since I baked a cake, but I baked a pone on Monday. A pone is grated pumpkin, coconut and casava [a ground provision] mixed with spice, vanilla extract, sugar and a pinch of butter, tastes great!
That sounds divine! I love all the ingredients! I never heard of a "pone" before!

Pone rhymes with phone, and hello, it tastes divine. 2lbs cassava, 2lbs pumpkin and one dried coconut, grate all then mix with vanilla, butter, spice powder and 1lb brown sugar, bake at 375 d for 45 mins, cool and devour!

Hey barbaranne, I enjoyed your story on pudding! Always welcome a little history about different cultures, I live in trinidad and tobago, we were once ruled by britain. Still emotionally attached though, hope to visit one day, God willing.

I never knew pone was a baked good. Years ago when there was a movie or comedy routine about hillbillies they would mention corn pone and I always thought that was some kind of moonshine. Maybe there are two kinds?
