"Since making my Lavender and Lemon Pound Cake, I've been intrigued by the idea of using herbs in simple cakes. Pumpkin and sage are a wonderful savory combination, so I wondered what they woudl taste like together in a sweet form. I was very please with the result—a more interesting and sophisticated pumpkin cake, for sure. finish off slices with some maple syrup-sweetened creme fraiche.
