When I was a child we lived in an Italian neighborhood. In every backyard there was a fig tree...delicious figs in season and in winter the ends of the branches all had thier little white protective hats on. Good thing I was small or Mamma would not have had any figs left to make her delicious recipes. She was amazing! Thanks Mumtaz for your rating on the Moist Fig Cake!Blessings, Joymarie
