Wholemeal flour and egg whites with less sugar make a healthy yummy cake. It is also combined with ground hazelnut, dried apricots and dried cranberries to make the cake more flavourful. You can also use any other dried fruits or nuts but make sure you chop them into smaller pieces so that they will not sink to the bottom of the cake after it is baked. This cake is fragrant and quite soft even if it is stored in the fridge.
