What is a friendship cake?

OP, I've never done the friendship cake thing but I know timing is paramount. You might want to just start over.

Oh no....I can't just push it up three days

I once got friendship bread starter - how about that instead?

Wow. That went downhill fast. OP - one recipe I just looked up says that the juice stays good in the fridge indefinitely. Just put the sugar in ASAP, get the fruit tomorrow and it should be ok.

Also, I'll admit it sounds a little gross. You could just start a new starter from scratch to keep it going or better yet just say your kids were goofing off and knocked it over and it spilled.

You sure sound like it to me...all of you do. what joys your kids must be (not).

For the record I am an above PP and am neither a snob nor a SAHM. I am also not miserable.

Off to google "friendship cake"... I'm afraid....

Thank you for all the positive feedback....I would really just like to make this cake and give it to my family....if they don't like it...oh well it's the thought that counts. I'm sorry if it doesn't meet the snobby DCUM standards. Can you suggest anything better???

Gross. Toss this mess and get a better class of friends.

Good luck.

...by just forgetting the whole thing! Brrrrrrr down the garbage disposal!

Friendship Cake = (in)edible chain letter

That is what I was thinking. I thought the cake was so nasty.

I'm in the process of trying to make my friendship cake starter and I've hit a snag. I'm supposed to add 2 cups of sugar and 1 can of fruit cocktail every two weeks. I ran out of fruit cocktail and was two days late adding the ingredients. How can I fix this????
