A slice has been cut from this upside-down fruit cake and set on a plain white plate, showing the caramelized fruit that was once the bottom of the pan. The method is a long-standing home-baking habit: fruit, often apple or pineapple rings, is arranged in butter and sugar, batter is poured over it, and the cake is turned out after baking so the topping ends up glossy on top. Such cakes were a practical way to use seasonal fruit in American kitchens, and the cut slice makes the layers easy to read.
