Lady Baltimore Cake. Lady Baltimore Cake is a traditional Christmas white cake recipe with fluffy seven-minute frosting filled with chopped pecans, raisins, candied cherries and figs. There are several versions of how this lovely cake originated.
To Make Filling: Stir 2 cups Lady Baltimore Frosting, raisins, nuts, cherries, and 2 teaspoons vanilla or sherry all together. Use as filling to spread between layers. Spread remaining frosting on tops and sides of cake.
Another version that I believe, is that Florence and Nina Ottelengui, managers of Charleston’s Lady Baltimore Tea Room, developed the recipe from a popular cake of that time, “Queen Cake”. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
In a large bowl, cream butter or margarine, 1 1/4 cups sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla together well. Beat until light and fluffy. Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in another bowl. Add flour mixture to butter mixture in 3 parts alternating with milk in 2 parts, beginning and ending with flour.
