Hummingbird Cake Twist

Moist layered cake with banana and pineapple, but swapped in grated carrot and mango for sweetness and texture. Brown sugar replaced half regular white sugar for depth. Classic warm spices plus cardamom, adding a slight exotic feel. Cream cheese frosting with a dash of lime zest to cut through richness. Cake dense but not heavy, crumb tender, aroma rich and inviting. Bakes until golden, edges pulling slightly from sides in pan. A southern-inspired cake that plays with tradition.
