And then there are the cake recipes of the past that were simply forgotten as more modern cakes came into being. If you’re looking to shake up your dessert repertoire try these deliciously different cake recipes especially if you’ve never heard of them before. You might just find your new favorite cake.

Sultana cake is a simple butter and raisin cake from the 1920s. Sultanas are the British name for small seedless raisins and the sultanas in this cake are moist and flavoursome.

This cake uses an ingredient so unexpected you might not want to try it at all but Allrecipes community members agree that this pork-n-beans cake is deliciously moist and has a spicy flavor reminiscent of pumpkin.
