If your plums are too juicy, here's an idea for how to solve this problem and reduce the amount of liquid in your pastry. It doesn't matter what recipe you cook from. Prepare the plums in advance, for example the day before you are going to use them. Cut and pit the plums. Place in a bowl and refrigerate uncovered overnight. During this time, the plums will "dry out" slightly and will not ruin your cake. Every time you cook from my recipe, my life gets one day longer. This is probably the most popular recipe on the blog. If you make this cake, I will live forever
