Do you remember a cake that came in a soup like tin can?
The woman who gave birth to me would buy a cake that came in a tin can. We live in Ontario Canada and this would have been in the 70's or early 80's. I remember the cake had nuts in it and was a of darker cake, it was not chocolate. This cake is NOT fruit cake!!! The cake was a tin can like a can of soup. As I was so young I don't know if this was an imported food but I think since I can't find it probably was. Also this cake was available all year round. I remember the tin had a gold ring around the label and the label was a burgundy colour. Does anyone remember this cake? Does anyone know where I can buy it? Please provide links if possible so I can see if you are suggesting the correct product I am looking for and reward you with 10 points and thumbs up points. Thank you for all your help! Once we find the product it's cake for everyone... :o)
Hey Jonah, Thanks so much for the suggestion; I'm going to try to find some, I hope you are right. I'll be back soon and let you all know if the mystery is solved in the mean time I gave you a thumbs up :o)

I was thinking Brown Bread or even Spotted Dick from England. It's a sponge cake and you can find it at stores like worldmarket.com. Have fun trying new things!!

Yes...Jonah has it right...I still see it on our store shelves and remembered how my parents used to buy it all the time....it came in handy when company dropped by. We used to put a bit of butter on it to eat it. Hmm...now you have me thinking maybe I should go get some :D.

That sounds more like B&M Brown Bread, than cake.
Check out: http://www.amazon.com/M%C2%AE-Brown-Bread-Plain-oz... that has a picture of it.
It comes in a tall soup can, it's dark and sweetened with molasses. It's very tasty and even better warmed up. we sometimes had a slice with breakfast and also took it camping.
