The Market's Spring Fling Cake

The market, located at 1445 larimar street, denver, colorado makes this fabulous cake. we first had the cake at a birthday party for our friend (mary). it was so good that i had to search for the recipe, and found it in an old rocky mountain news article. the rmn no longer publishes a newspaper, so i'm saving the recipe here.

Steps

Preheat oven to 350f.
Grease and flour a 10 inch cake pan.
Cake: in a large mixing bowl , combine shredded zucchini , eggs , sugar , oil , sour cream , and vanilla.
Combine the dry ingredients in another bowl.
Then add to zucchini mixture.
Batter will be rather wet and easy to pour.
Pour batter into prepared cake pan and bake for 50-70 minutes.
Cool on rack 10 minutes , then remove cake from pan.
Frosting: whip cream cheese with butter until smooth.
Gradually add the powdered sugar , mixing until combined.
In another bowl , whip the heavy cream until stiff , then fold the whipped cream and 1 / 2 t vanilla into the frosting mixture.
Assemble cake: cut cooled cake in half lengthwise.
You can cut the cake into three layers , like they do at the market.
Spread frosting over the first layer , add a layer of fruit.
Put on the top layer and frost.
The sides of the cake are not frosted.
