She was not only a great cook--she was a loving woman--we adored her! When she passed--her son [Alan] continued making these cakes. Momma would buy two each Christmas. Now that Alan is gone--I make them at Christmas for my own family. I was told they were most special cakes from Shady Side, MD. Nice tradition!

My grandmoth...I'm so happy to have found this! My grandmother used to make jelly cake. I finally found her recipe, which was labeled "Hard Jelly Cake". Unfortunately, she doesn't say how much flour to use (actually doesn't have flour in the list of ingredients). My grandma used currant jelly instead of grape. On the back, she says that it's a colonial Maryland recipe that Ida "Honeybaby" Harp gave her. :)<br />Publiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05803569911029840473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7317606709156898953.post-44397198463427791152015-12-02T12:28:10.734-08:002015-12-02T12:28:10.734-08:00Aunt Hattie was my aunt my mother's elder sist...Aunt Hattie was my aunt my mother's elder sister whom I loved with all my heart.

As long as I can remember from a small child Aunt Hattie became busy in Dec. making hard jelly cakes for all her friends and family. If you received one of her cakes you knew you were a true friend.
