Can apple butter be cooked in a iron pot?

Apple butter should never be cooked in a cast iron pot. The acid of the apple butter reacts with the chemicals in the metal, which gives the apple butter a metallic taste. Further, it may turn your mouth black. The majority of apple butter kettles are made of copper, which will not have the same reaction.

What type of cakes did the have on ve day?

Since rationing was in force cakes sugar, eggs, butter and milk were in short supply and margarine was also rationed though less strictly than butter. Carrot cakes were extremely popular as they use less sugar and carrots could be home grown and so had good availability. They also work relatively well made with oil or margarine rather than butter. Honey might be used to substitute for sugar. Milk would be powdered and maybe thinned with water. Eggs would be powdered if they were used at all, some cake recipes from the time rely on bicarbonate of soda and vinegar to create a raise. Pureed apples, grown in Britain, could be used to help sweeten a cake and would also help make it moist in the absence of butter. A tarter apple would also react with bicarb to help the cake rise without eggs. Dried fruit such as raisins and sultanas could help provide some flavour and sweetness. The cakes would be plain, not iced.

Is apple butter real butter?

Apple butter is nothing like regular butter made from milk fat. It is made from the cooked flesh of apples with spices, sugar, and sometimes other flavorings such as vinegar, like applesauce only fancier and usually of a more uniform consistency so it can be spread. But it is real butter in the sense that the term "butter" can be used to describe a spread made from the flesh of fruit without seeds. ("Jam" is a fruit spread with seeds and "jelly" is a spread made from jelled juice and sugar, with no seeds or fruit.)
