This is the first time i tried this recipe,and it really tasted good.I got this recipe from an old

recipe book .As it is made with ripe mango,you can keep the cake out only for three days.If you

are storing in the refridgerator you could keep for a week.

You can eat it plain,but it tastes best the following day and after,My suggestions to serve will

be with ice cream ,or top it with light cream cheese frosting.Well,we had it plain as i had

brushed the top with marmalade.For the recipe now.
