Poppy Seed Cake with Cherries

This is my first poppy seed cake ever. I was a skeptic about it’s tastiness, but I was wrong. Especially like this, cherry jelly in the middle of two layers of poppy seed cake and decorated with whipped cherry cream, totally unexpected, delicious dessert. This experiment was carefully watched by my other half…until it was served

Mmmm, delicious – he said, but poppy seeds bothered him afterwords
