If you really don't want to give some away or keep any for yourself, just make cakes and such until it is all gone. These things keep well in the freezer.

Now to get the calendar and figure out when to start to have those loaves by the holidays.....
again thank you for looking up your recipe.

I used this recipe 10-12 years ago and loved the cake. I will look for the recipe to see if I still have it. I was looking at the recommended recipes that the members have found for you but I don't remember putting yeast in mine. Just give me some time and will look for it. If you are going to make some for holidays I guess I have some time!! I remember using a bundt cake pan to make it in too.

I don't remember using yeast for Herman. You left him uncovered the first day to collect mold spores from the air. No fruit in the one we passed around 35 years ago. The peaches went into the cake at assembly time. I recently saw two recipes for sourdough bread. The baker made the starter without yeast and the homemaker used yeast. Both products looked similar when baked.

Just a Pinch Recipes; Fruit Starter and Friendship cakes. I did a Google search for Friendship Cake starter and 'Just a Pinch' came up in the search. It's almost identical to the recipe I was given over 30 years ago! I'm starting one myself from this recipe. Good luck.
