This Jackfruit Butter Cake recipe is inspired by a friend of mine whom I have known from the Parents’ Support Group in my son’s school. We used to gather weekly to bond by sharing home cooked food. There was once she shared her jackfruit muffins with us. As I have been baking butter cake, I decided to improvise the recipe by combining them together. Hence, the product is the fusion of both flavours.
