Travancore Royal Plum Cake — A Christmas Tradition Reborn at The Muffin House

Christmas in Kerala is more than a festival — it is a celebration of tradition, flavour, and togetherness. At The Muffin House, this spirit comes alive through one of our most cherished creations: the Travancore Royal Plum Cake, handcrafted with love, heritage, and time-honoured craftsmanship.

Inspired by the regal traditions of the Travancore Kingdom, this cake embodies centuries of culture, spice history, and royal culinary elegance.

A Legacy Rooted in Travancore’s Royal Heritage

The culinary heritage of Travancore is renowned across the southern tip of India. Known for its spice routes that connected Kerala to the world, the region became a global center for flavour and fragrance. From Quilon and Vizhinjam to the capital city of Thiruvananthapuram, this land was celebrated for its richness and royal grandeur.

The Travancore Royal Plum Cake pays tribute to this heritage. Crafted at The Muffin House, Thiruvananthapuram, every slice reflects the essence of Kerala’s spice heartland and the timeless traditions passed down through generations.

Craftsmanship That Celebrates Christmas

At The Muffin House, Christmas baking is more than a seasonal activity — it’s a ritual of perfection. Our team carefully slow-ages the cake, allowing the fruit blends, spices, and caramel tones to develop deep, complex flavours.

Each cake is:

• Slow aged

• Richly soaked in premium fruit blends

• Delicately spiced with Kerala’s finest spices

• Made using local and imported, high-quality ingredients

The result? A masterpiece that captures nostalgia, warmth, and the true spirit of Christmas.

Crafted With Royal Precision

Only the finest ingredients find their way into our Travancore Royal Plum Cake:

• Golden honey-infused raisins

• Slow-cooked prunes and dates

• Rich butter and pure caramel

• Cinnamon, cardamom, and fresh orange zest

This careful blend creates a flavour profile that is both luxuriously sweet and beautifully spiced, reminiscent of Travancore’s regal feasts.

A Slice of Royalty in Every Bite

Moist, aromatic, and deeply flavourful — each bite delivers the perfect balance of sweetness and warm spices. Whether enjoyed with family or gifted to loved ones, this cake carries the royal touch of Travancore and the signature craftsmanship of The Muffin House, where every bake is a celebration of excellence.

Christmas tastes different when it is inspired by heritage. And with the Travancore Royal Plum Cake, we’re keeping a royal tradition alive — one delicious slice at a time.
