I grew up in a household that always had some kind of tasty treat being baked in the kitchen. My passion for baking comes from my mom, as well as my grandmother. Well, this Seanchan Kaf Cake is one that instantly popped in my head to submit. This recipe was my grandma's, passed down to my mom, who passed it down to me. Three generations of baking are ready to be spun out in the 3rd age of The Wheel of Time! The Seanchan are very fond of their dark bitter drink, called Kaf, which pairs wonderfully with this cake. I envision this as a dish that was created with the arrival of the Ever Victorious Army introducing Kaf to these parts. Enjoy it with your cup of Kaf in the morning, or an after-dinner dessert!
