Cherry Garcia Loaf Cake is not only beautiful but is deliciously packed with juicy cherries!
If you’re like me, you adore anything ‘cherry’ and this cake my lovely friends, is freakin’ fantastic!
You can use fresh cherries in this recipe or use maraschino cherries as I did here (they both taste amazing) but I always always been a lover of those sweet jar cherries!
Great for Valentines day coming up or just for an amazing dessert that everyone is going to devour!
Great for bake sales or just as a dangerously delicious dessert for after dinner!
The sweet cherry glaze that I’ve drizzled over the cake is literally to die for delish!
