This is a gluten-free blueberry & fig cake recipe for those who prefer cakes that are not too sweet.  I don’t enjoy desserts when all you can taste is the extra sugar.  I feel it takes away a lot from the real flavor.  I got to warn you that when you make this cake you will want to eat it all at once.  Yeah, it’s that good!
