Do you have a plum cake recipe?

Question

Last year I went to a bakery which has since went out of business. Anyway they had this plum cake that was to die for. It was baked in a bundt pan and had a caramel-like icing. The woman behind the counter said that it had pureed plums in it. Do any of you have a recipe like this? I've looked all over the internet (and yes I have looked at allrecipes and foodnetwork) and haven't been able to find anything like it.
