Cook’s note
Berries are cooked from frozen, do not thaw them before cooking. Use a mix of frozen berries such as raspberries,
blueberries, blackberries and strawberries. Chop larger pieces of fruit into pieces.
More like a steamed pudding, cake will continue cooking during standing time. Cake is cooked when a skewer inserted
comes out clean.
If the cake requires additional cooking time, select BAKE program, set time for 10 minutes and press START. Check after 5
minutes, cancel remaining time if necessary.
