The camp toaster is one of those cooking gadgets that doesn’t seem to get used as much as it could, generally because toast is seen as boring. Toasting cake however is something on the next level. Toasting the cake actually further caramelizes the sugars in it, making the cake even richer and sweeter.
Simple but effective, don’t knock this until you have tried it. People are often surprised by the change of flavor and texture of the cake. You can use any fresh berries in season, or use frozen berries that have been defrosted and drained.
