I went to the Allen brothers website and could not find the recipe for hummingbird cake. They will sell you one but don't have the recipe posted.

You can't get the recipe. You can only purchase the cake from this company.
Unfortunately. If you ever find it....I would love to have it also.

Is the recipe on allenbrothers website? I was just there and didn't see it; however I'm a senior citizen and not too computer savvy, so maybe I just didn't look far enough. I did, however, see the price for the chicken breasts........FOUR for $99.00!!!!!! OMG

Yes I too was shocked at the prices. You could make this at home for a fraction!

Well I hit the wrong button....This is a recipe I have used in the past and it is really good. I have used cream cheese frosting or the standard buttercream icing as well. This recipe is from "LadyCakes" website. It is a terrific site for finding different cake recipes. I look thru Oprah's site and Chef Arts site as well and could not find his. So instead of being with out a recipe I thought I would post the one I have used in the past.Hope you enjoy it!
