Hi all, my apologies, at the end of the video when I repeated myself on the baking temperature I made a mistake and said I baked the cake at 200F/140C for 1 hour 15 minutes instead of saying 275F/140C. Please make a note of this. Thanks and happy baking🥰
Hi Wendy, Yesterday I baked this easy cake, I made a bigger batch, total 4 cakes. I brushed it with Rum mixed with little Vanilla Extract. It turned very good. Thank you so much for your Recipe..
This recipe looks easy.. I love fruit cake and I will definitely try this one.Thank you for sharing your recipe.Happy New Year Wendy and to your family!🎄🎉🎊
Found your channel while looking for Christmas cake recipe. You explain so well. Loved your neat work station, your beautiful cutlery, containers, that copper wire rack, and your beautiful kitchen. Subscribed!!
This is incredible !! Can’t believe how easy you have made a Holiday favorite ❤️ the cake looks amazingly delicious & the fruit is spread evenly 👌Thanks a ton Wendy for yet another fantastic recipe 🎶🌺🎼❤️
Baked this today. Colour and shine is fantastic but the cake appears very dense. How does one judge if the batter consistency is okay or needs to be thinned out a bit before baking?
Wow Precious Wendy your Christmas cake looks amazing and delux. You always make everything look so easy. Thanks for sharing. Blessed Festive Season to you and your dear family. 😊🎉🎉❤❤
I tried your Christmas cake recipe last year and OMG was it a hit!! I will try this very easy method this year and revert with my opinion! Thanks again Wendy.
Caroline just tried this delicious cake and the house smells heavenly. They are cooling and drenched with VSOP 🤣🤣. Thanks Wendy once again for your 100% recipie😊
Hi Wendy. Tried your non soaking fruits in brandy cake but I used my soaked. Turned out well. Thank you n God bless. Going to try your soaked fruits recipe 👏👏🙏🙏❤️🙌🙌👍
Oooh, thank you, perfect timing! It looks delicious! I don't like glacee cherries. What i often do instead is put in a ring of whole preserved green figs so the slices come out with big green wheels in them. I think Maraschino cherries work well too, but i find them a little hard to get. I always toast the nuts beforehand. I grow my own, so am very lucky... Happy Christmas, Wendy, to you and your family from South Africa.
Oh, that's so easy.. Wendy, thank you for this lovely and easy recipe..will try soon. Can I use my soaked fruits, which must be well marinated with rum now. Stay Blessed 😊
Lokks yummy. I am crazy about fruit cakes. Christmas has already gone but I am going to follow your recipe to the book and try it out. Just one query. How long should I keep the cake soaked in alcohol? Can I eat it right away ?
i am hooked on your channel after trying your dessert. so want to try this cake version but am afraid of the fruit sinking. any chances of that happening? hope its ok to use dark muscovado sugar?
Hi Wendy your cake looks yummy will definitely have to give it a go. Have you ever used crystallised pumpkin. My mum always used it in her Christmas cakes when we lived in India (Calcutta), it gave a lovely crunchy taste to the cake. Have a lovely Christmas ❤❤
It’s delicious. In Pakistan we call it petha. Am guessing it’s called the same in India. One of my favourite treats from the sweet meat shops and I have used it in fruitcake in the past. Thank you for the reminder!
Hi i am ist time to yiur channel this ia an awasome old fashion receipe so awasome. I have taught this in my college time cooking 😊so lovely to remember old days thank you so much will try this . Kind regards Uk.😊😊😊
Hi just made my cake and can’t wait to taste it. Is it possible to ice this cake.? As I am in the tropics could you suggest the best simple icing to use?
Hi Wendy. Want to try this Xmas. Can v reduce the dr fruits. If so like how much. Also can I double the juice qty and skip the alcohol. This recipe Luks simple and easy to me and I want to try this Xmas 💕
