We recently collected a lot figs from our garden and some of them were a bit ripe so I decided to make a cake out of them. They are so tasty, it would have been a shame to dry them but a bit too mushy too enjoy them fresh.
I really love Turkish Figs, they are so tasty and sweet. One of the reasons I look forward to summer.
