Beautiful! I made a hummingbird cake for a friend’s birthday a couple of years ago. She still talks about it. 😄. It really is a wonderful cake. Thanks for posting this recipe!

Spiffing cake that exudes sunshine flavours. The Jamaicans name for the hummingbird is 'Doctor Bird' and the recipe for this cake (originally called Doctor Bird cake) was renamed and sent out in the late 60s by the Jamaican Tourist Board in media press packs to the USA to promote visiting their island. I guess it worked!
