    What a great recipe. I just read that quince should only be ingested after being cooked. I would love to make this recipe.

    That is one gorgeous cake! There have been quince at our farmers market here, but I didn't have a reason to buy them – until now!

    I loved this cake and i'm thinking doing it tomorrow.I just have 2 questions: when do we add the oil and doesn't it need eggs?:)

  • Marija November 30, 2009 2:55 pm

    @gasparzinha – Thanks for noticing about oil, it was a typo and I have corrected it. You add it at the beginning. It doesn't need eggs because it's vegan. I made it for the fasting menu. Hope it turns out ok and let me know how you liked it when you make it :)
