I took the easy route!! I ordered a cake from Dacia!! Wowww❤. When I tell you the cake was soooo good, the moisture, the texture, wasn’t too heavy, wasn’t too light, perfection!!.The taste, ohhh Lord, very, very good!!. It was a hit in my house, it was done in 2 days 😅.
Thank you so much. I made this cake by following your video step by step. It was off the chain. Moist, delicious, I was not disappointed. You are an excellent instructor. Thanks my fellow Jamaican, much love.
The eggs should break Into a cup sepperate ,then remove the 2 slides of both sides of the eggs ,that's what makes the mixture, raw. Also sometimes the eggs spoiled, that would save you throwing away all of the mixture, .
Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago. Awesome job. Most are skeptical when they see 12 eggs for one lb cake but thats how i learnt it from my great aunt who is a black cake goddess.
If the eye of the egg is not taken out.you could grate a liberal amount of lemon or lime rind and beat it into the egg mixture .that will get rid of all rawness. from Jamaica.
Just seeing your video? What was the result of the cake adding jelly and 12 eggs WOW!! I am sorry you didn't 🍰slice it , I will Try this recipe. Thanks for Sharing, HAPPY Holidays 🌹
I've watched several videos on black cakes and by far your cakes are the smoothest. So those many eggs must make a diff. I wished you had cut it so we cld view the texture & see the cherries.
I never remove the eye from my eggs when I bake and my cake is never raw. I mix my eggs in a bowl till it foams to the top with essence rum wine lemon zest and lime juice. And I use 8 eggs to a pound mix depending on the egg sizes. 10 if they are small
I also prep my flour mixture the night before with the spices shifted put in an air tight container and just add the baking powder before placing in the mixture. Save so much time.
I've personally tasted Dacia's cakes and I must say they are worth eating. Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial. I will definitely like share and subscribe....and make it one day. Soon I hope
You probably dont give a shit but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Marlon David I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Very nice tutorial, Sista Daria one love. Where do you live that you can't get the best rum in the world? Use the hand mixer for all the egg mixing, save you shoulder Daria I know how painful that can be. Have your Mom send you glazed cherries from NYC they are cheaper than the ones in the jar. Please break you eggs one at a time into a small bowl then transfer to a bigger bowl. I would hate for you to get a bad egg and have to throw out all your eggs because you put them all in one bowl first.
Love your recipe. Your recipe is the original...a very rich tasting cake. This is the recipe I have been looking for. Only difference I had glasé pineapple include in my fruits.
Do you ever put nuts in your cakes? To get the extra fruit out of the mixer, just put some of the beaten eggs inside & blend. Your blade will be cleaned as well. Don't waste that expensive fruit...lol😂 Pour into the batter.
I did not see the amount of fruit listed in the recipe, so if you can let us know. I am trying to find a good recipe for 21. You are using the 1 lb method so you need 8 eggs no more 8 eggs are over l lb or 480 grms. 454 is 1 lb. So you can save 4 I usually put mine on the scale to be sure, because eggs are expensive, so I don't want to waste. Thank you.
This is what Dacia posted elsewhere: Crochet and Food By Dacia G 10 days ago I use the prepackaged sizes of fruits. They range from 0.65lbs to 0.85 lbs each. So total fruit blend works out to just under 2lbs. ❤
I just came across your video after watching 3 other video and I really enjoyed yours the most. While I was watching your video I accidentally touched something and your video disappeared, it took me a while strolling to find your video since I didn't get your name yet Just want to know how much wine, fruits , to used in a 1lb cake? I will also rewatch this video to find out . I love crochet and always want to learn to make them.
Thank you for watching ❤️. You will see I hardly measure anything except for the flour, sugar and butter. The wine I add after the cake is made. Start by using one of the foil pouch of sunmaid raisins, and foil pouch of prunes sold in most supermarkets. I think they are about half pound each. At the end of the day it’s about the finally ratio of flour to liquid ingredients to give a slightly thick consistency when you are finished mixing. Trust your gut🤩🤩. You can do this. Appreciate you being here
Yes you do it holds the cake together that much better and you get a nice tasting cake. That is how I do it too and this is my first time watching this video.
I always use 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour and 3 cups of blended fruits not too thick and 4 eggs if they are large and if they are small/medium then I will use 6 eggs instead. Remember to sift the flour more than once to give it a light moist texture.
I used the one pound package of sunmaid raisins. The one the pouch. And the prune in the pouch as well. And half of the chopped peels( half pound) one cup of wine and 2 cups water
The husbands. They eat it all off. I am one of them 💖. Now that spent almost one hour seeing how this wonderful thing is made I will leave some for her and write an apology and love note. One day I am going to surprise her with one.
The lime or lemon juice and rind will take care of the rawness from the egg eyes. I take out as much as I can. Always use some lime or lemon juice and you can grate the rind as well.
I am a Jamaican .why the eye is taken from the eggs is that when its common fowl eggs the eggs are stronger and have that raw smell n taste, the machine chicken eggs not so.
Good afternoon love your recipe but you forget to take out the eye of the egg that makes it smell raw when you break the egg at each side you w Ill find the eye sometimes you find two any way i still love it.
It was totally unnecessary to beat the eggs separately, just beat it in with the batter, and too much eggs.. when the eggs are that large you used only 8 .. that's why the batter is runny.
I use 6 eggs and yes she should break in a smaller bowl and if the egg is good then it goes into a bigger bowl until all eggs are broken and ready to be wisk this way if any is spoiled she can catch it in the small bowl and throw it out so it won't spoil the rest of broken eggs
You are correct. I don’t use milk or cream. I’m personally lactose intolerant and my family’s recipe never called for milk . Do you use milk in your Christmas cake? How much ?

True true. Something to learn
Exactly one at a time separately plus remove the eye or chalaza
Alma whyte you are right Sometimes the eggs are not good 👍
Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago. Awesome job. Most are skeptical when they see 12 eggs for one lb cake but thats how i learnt it from my great aunt who is a black cake goddess.
I use 12 eggs too that how i learnt from school days in home economic class
If the eye of the egg is not taken out.you could grate a liberal amount of lemon or lime rind and beat it into the egg mixture .that will get rid of all rawness. from Jamaica.
Definitely. The lemon juice works for me
Good job my friend
What if eleven eggs r good n one is spoilt , what would u do with the mixture.
I'm going to say right up front, I gave you a thumbs up as SOON as you were real about how much work goes into Black cake. You go grrl!
Ain’t that the truth !! Thanks for being real about this. Thanks for being here too
That cake is always delicious. Egg-y, sweet, hard working, but it is worth it. I'm so glad to see it being made.
Thank you! It sure is worth it ! These days I call it the devil cake , so good but so rich for the waistline 😂
Those cherries cost more with the stems as they are used in cocktails. For black cake and other fruitcakes, glaceed cherries are used.
Just seeing your video?
What was the result of the cake
adding jelly and 12 eggs WOW!! I am sorry you didn't 🍰slice it , I will
Try this recipe.
Thanks for
Sharing, HAPPY Holidays 🌹
Although the video was very long, I thought it was authentic. I don't know Dacia but after watching the video I like her, down to earth and natural.
You need to do your prepping off camera. It's too time consuming
Thank you. I appreciate it. Just showing what I do for my family
@@monicafray5698 you are so right. I will do better next time. I’m not used to videotaping my work !

I look the video showing how you make the cake. I would love to have the recipe. How much fruit do you used in your pounds cake?
Thank you for watching ! At least 3 cups of the prepared fruit blend
I just came across your video after watching 3 other video and I really enjoyed yours the most. While I was watching your video I accidentally touched something and your video disappeared, it took me a while strolling to find your video since I didn't get your name yet

Why do you hand mix the rest instead of using the mixer? Does that affect the end product?
That is what I do I I eye ball every thing. Except for my flour.
I’m with you!! It works right!
You should take out eye the white thing in the egg it make the cake smell raw.
I’ll try that next time.
The fruit has been pureed, not chopped, which is the original way to prepare it.
Yes TAYLOR PORT WINE is very good
Looks good.
Why one dozen eggs in a one pound cake?
That’s my family recipe ... never asked the why 😂
I always use 8 eggs in mine
A dozen eggs make it soupy
A dozen is the ideal amount for that lightness
8 Lg eggs is a pound, but to each his own. I use 8 with no problem.
@@swabyd1 okay
1 dozen eggs is almost like baking a 3 lbs cake. You don't need 1 dozen eggs for 1 lb flour , 1lbs sugar.
Yes you do it holds the cake together that much better and you get a nice tasting cake. That is how I do it too and this is my first time watching this video.
Yes is the simplest way I ever see I'm going to try it this way,but I will use ten eggs instead of twelve
12 eggs to a pound is how i learnt as well from my great aunt. Best cake ever
How many eggs do you suggest?
Just thinking.
@@lamourhowell6772 9 large eggs = 1 pound.
How mucvh pounds of fruits did you use and how much wine and rum did you add in with the fruits when you blended them?

@@crochetandfoodbydaciag3391 Just making sure I fully understand you....
1 lb raisins
1lb prune
1/2 lb mixed peel
??
@@msb1404 putting water below your oven gives it a moist texture like she says?
I do not lick the bowl because of the raw eggs. Going to try it with the jelly tho.
I can vouch for ‘em black cakes...they the bestest!!!😋😋👌😋😋💖
You can’t resist them. Now you know how to make your own. 😂
Wan to see the texture of the cake
The husbands. They eat it all off. I am one of them 💖. Now that spent almost one hour seeing how this wonderful thing is made I will leave some for her and write an apology and love note. One day I am going to surprise her with one.
That batter is over mixed.
Why do you use a laminated wooden salad bowl for mixing? Perhaps it's plastic and looks like wood.
Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago nice do nice
Trini!!! In the house. Thank you for watching
U think u cheat, I beat my eggs in the blender. They love my cake.
😂😂. You rock !!!
You can also put some rum in the eggs and beat it with.
Gotta try that
Love it
Thank you
So why didn't you take out the egg eyes. That's what makes the cake raw
I wondered why she did not take them out. She said she didn't like raw cake.
The lime or lemon juice and rind will take care of the rawness from the egg eyes. I take out as much as I can. Always use some lime or lemon juice and you can grate the rind as well.
I add lemon juice or lime. But I’m sure taking out the eyes would do it too
I stew my fruits with Orange peals.. wouldnt that kill the rawness after the eggs?
This looks delicious!🆕️fam!
Is Grace browning made from sugar?
I’m not sure. I don’t usually use browning. Maybe Check their label online
All browning is made from brown sugar, they said browning, it's the same burnt sugar.
Next time please show the texture
Will do
I caunt believe that you don't take out the eyes from the eggs.
Me too she is not a real jamaican
I am a Jamaican .why the eye is taken from the eggs is that when its common fowl eggs the eggs are stronger and have that raw smell n taste, the machine chicken eggs not so.
Old wives tale. It makes no difference. Lemon/Lime cuts out the rawness.
Can butter the dish too then flour
That’s what we do for the glass ones. The grease/ wax paper in the metal tins
@@crochetandfoodbydaciag3391 very nice, we learn from each other and I do appreciate the information
I love black rum cake
Right. We call it the devil😂. Taste so good but gotta limit how much we eat. OMG. Black cake !
If I need four cake how much ingredient much I use please can you tell me
I would use this exact measurement! 1 lb each of flour, sugar and butter It’s listed at the very beginning. ❤️
Your cake diss burst nice
Sorry a pound cake needs a little more than a pound of flour 10 eggs is good to use you could also use a cup of bread crumbs
Love black cake
😂😂 me too. I love Christmas time
The best days.

Why are you mixing the batter like your making porridge you must fold a d cut
it.bount hove to be so black
Correct.Add one egg @ time & Fold the batter as you add each egg.

not ready. even if it taste like.
Give the measurements for the cake
Its not egg eyes ots the fetus.
You need a camera person.
That cake is not suitable for children because of the alcohol
