Friendship Cake Starter
1st week: 1 cup sugar and 1 cup crushed pineapple
2nd week: 1 cup sugar and 1 cup chopped peaches with juice
3rd week: 1 cup sugar and 1 cup marachino cherries with juice; cut in half
Allow to sit for 3 more weeks. Drain fruit, save the liquid, this becomes your starter for the next batch. Fruit can be used in cake or as a topping for ice cream or cake.

1 1/2 cups brandied fruit, no juice
1 white or yellow cake mix
1 small box instant vanilla pudding

Mix all together and pour into a greased and floured bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes.

Starter liquid:
Do not refrigerate the following mixture and do not cover tightly:

1 1/2 cups starter juice
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 quart canned peaches with juice
Combine and stir daily for 10 days.
