Christmas Fruitcake Pt1: Mixing, Baking & Feeding | Cupcake Jemma

- JEMMA IS HERE!!! And it's time to make your Christmas Fruitcake! Yes, Christmas is still a way off but if you want a perfectly moist Christmas Fruitcake it's time to get baking so that you can spend a few weeks feeding it (with booze of course) to make it not just moist but to enhance all of those Christmassy flavours. But of course if you leave it late that's no problem either, you will still have a delicious Christmas Fruitcake.
Our Christmas Fruitcake Kits have sold out for this year, but you can still browse a range of great Christmas Bake at Home gifts at cupcakejemma.c...
We will be back nearer to Christmas to show you how to ice your Christmas Fruitcake as well as hw to make your own Marzipan. So stay tuned and in the meantime get baking and feeding!!

So nice to see you back Jemma!
In the Caribbean we soak the dried fruits with rum for up to an entire year and puree them and takes only about an hour to bake.
I was looking for the Caribbean comment lol :) Trini girl here and I like to blend/puree half of the fruits and lightly chop the rest. Love a bit of texture in the cake. Your cake looks lovely... Time to soak my fruits!
Guyanese girl here, my fruits have been soaking for months and ready to bake!
Yes!
Same here for my drunken fruitcake, it goes in the freezer but does not freeze lol. Mmmmmmmm
I mentioned something similar do you use browning or black Molasses
JEMMA IS BACK!!
❤️ WE MISSED YOU! (& always love Sally, of course)
Why wasn't she in videos??
She had a baby
@@ramonariedelsperger4946 omg wow. I didn't even know! Thanks

I have made this cake every year since you guys posted this video and every year I’m asked if I’m making one again because everyone loves it that much! Thank you Cupcake Jemma for the amazing recipe 🥰
Made this 4 times now including twice splitting the mix between 2 loaf tins(lower the cooking time to about 2hrs 15mins) excellent recipe guys, thank you so much😊
I just LOVE how Sally is watching Jemma with so much attention and respect. It's so nice to see caring people like her ;) and so happy to see you Jemma :D
Really missed Jemma! She is so energetic and fun to watch! Camera loves her!
Seeing both of you in a video has finally given me the “Christmas feels”. Awesome video!
What no wish, while mixing the cake mixture, as is traditional pre holiday baking?
we as children had opportunity to make a wish (often about what Santa would bring).
I did this with my own children and now they do same with their children today.
Queen does the same, each year too.
My kit arrived today, so excited... love the Bag... fruit is currently soaking w/ V.S.O.P brandy in my late nanny’s rum pot.
She taught me how to bake, but crumbs and dollies Jemma have inspired me to be more active in household bakes etc.
Thanks to All at Crumbs and Dollies.
Stir up Sunday is looming up us once again, many wishes to be made x
This years kit is slightly different as cherries are typical red store type glacé cherries… I substituted these with my organic dark glacé cherries similar to last season’s box.
It’s that time of year again! Who else comes back each year for this delicious recipe? 😁❤
Yaaaaaay and there we have our one and only amazing Jemma back with our favourite Sally again to share a delicious recipe for us !! You guys are great and to be honest I can't be thankful enough for your amazing recipes that you share every week ! You guys are amazing ❣️
Oh my gosh, I clicked so fast! Missed you Jemma :) Super happy to see you both togetherrrr! 🎉
Sally and Jemma! So happy to see you both, wishing the baby well! 👶😄💛
Thank you for offering an alternative basting. I don't drink alcohol but very much wanted to make this. The orange juice will be perfect.
Sally has been wonderful and it made me smile to have you back Jemma. Yay!
Nice to see you back again!! Have also loved watching Sally baking! Have just ordered the christmas cake box this morning, it will arrive on tuesday, really fast as I live in The Netherlands 👍
Finally my husband is getting a christmas cake after about having to do without for ten years as I found it to much work. Happy husband 😁
Ordered on saturday, arrived on monday.
They don't hang about at Crumbs & Doilies 😍
i live tropical country and dont even celebrate christmas but i love this season so much, just so comforting. and welcome back jemma 🥰
My parents were English and I grew up in America watching them make English fruitcakes. We made ours one whole year in advance and fed it through the summer, then made another near Christmas for the following year. Our fruitcakes were wrapped in cheesecloth (old school) and soaked in brandy. I can hardly wait for the marzipan and royal icing. My parents never made our fruitcakes that fancy.
Thanks Jemma and Sally. I now have the confidence to make my first Christmas cake.
Thank you so much ❤️
Just love watching you two together after so long👏🏻I can see you have a very special friendship bond🌸you made me smile🤗
good to have you back jemma!!!
have a great christmas
when it comes!
I firmly believe the Christmas season doesn't start until December 1...with the exception of making fruitcake! Great to see the dynamic duo back together xx
Very special indeed. Jemma, you sound so calm. Great format! Something's REALLY clicking there. Loved your narrating Sally!
Don't fix what's not broken.
It’s such a joy to see Jemma back! We rly missed you, but I think we all can agree dat u serve a gd break from all these and focus on ur life a bit! We can’t wait for u to b back full on, Jemma! We wish u all the best!!!
I remember my Mom making her fruit cake in July or August. After it cooled she wrapped it booze soaked tea towels and placing it in a container in the fridge. Also her cake was a white fruit cake as opposed to the traditional dark cake and she used almond flavoring. Her recipe was passed down in her family. I remember my Grandmother making this cake.
Welcome back Jemma 😍 Sally's been playing a blinder ❤️ It's defo not too early to say but HAPPY CHRISTMAS ladies 🎄🎄🎄🎄
Lovely to see you ladies back working together. Worship and rely heavily on your recipes. A BIG Happy Christmas to everyone at Crumbs and Dollies. Pilgrimaged last year and was star struck completely!!
I wish I lived in UK to get those cake kits! what a great idea :D
Me too -I wish we could get them in the good ole USA!!
They can post them out guys!
@@harleyjaine4241 To Canada? Shipping between Canada and UK is so pricey :(
@@harleyjaine4241 most non prepackaged food wouldn’t make it through customs.

But Sally is AMazing ...ty you both ...
Missed you Jemma. Love Sally and her joyful videos. Take care girls
😍❤️💕 Welcome back, Jemma!! We missed you!
It was so nice to see the two of you in the same video. Also, with all of the doom, gloom, and negativity going on, (I’m in the crazy U.S.), seeing you both smiling and happy was also a treat. Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe with us. Stay safe.
I ordered my kit and cannot wait for it to arrive tomorrow to get baking with my kids! ❤️ love the video! More Christmas themed baking please 👏🏻
Watching these two amazing ladies do their stand mixer dance was just the pick-me-up I needed today.
Hahahahaha glad to hear it x
The great double act are together again - woohoo! A great tutorial and fab recipe too. Thanks ladies.
Would highly recommend this cake!!!! I’ve always wanted to make a Christmas cake and I did this year after watching hundreds videos on it I finally decided on this, it’s absolutely amazing moist smells everything caint wait to make next one
Oh yeah, love Sally and the rest but Jemma is why I subscribed!
Thanks for a great recipe, I made 2 of these cakes today with minor adjustments on fruit weight (more cherries, peel) but more sugar and flour. Soaked all fruit in homemade spirit alcohol, smoked cherry bourbon and Rum and raisin.
Fantastic best Christmas cakes I ever made.. My kitchen smelt great with both being cooked at same time in dual ovens..
1 weighs 4, 1/2 lb, other 3,1/2 lb.
I managed to get a very small taste.. 😁👍.. Top drawer. No cracks or stodgy centres, no burning or fruit sinkage. 3.5 hrs blissful aroma...
Subbed... 😁😜👌
My kits have arrived!! Thank you! They are so perfect. You have really thought of everything and the decorations are adorable. Super excited! Soaked my fruit today and going to bake them tomorrow.
JEMMMMMAAAAAA.......it's sooo good to see you again😁😁😁

WELCOME BACK JEMMA! It is SOOOOOO Good to see two of my favorite bakers and RUclips Stars back together again. Sally, you have been totally Awesome during Jemma's absence, and make me wish I were "across the pond" visiting Soho with each video. Jemma you've been sorely missed, and I'm so happy for you and your household with Little Eden. She's adorable. God Bless during London's 2nd Lockdown.
Who else was getting emotional seeing Jemma back here baking along with Sally? ❤️ The social distancing is making things especially awkward, but the energy is nonetheless bursting from the screen! 🤗
It's herself! Welcome back Jemma!
Love love love you Jemma, my kids 10 and 8 are a big big fan of yours. God bless😍
Both of them are so beautiful and have lots of energy. Can't wait to make this for my little cousins
One done second next week. Last years tasted fantastic. Thanks for the help.
I made my Christmas cakes a couple of weeks ago. A bit more work but I prefer to stew my mixed dried fruit in the alcohol and spices. Makes them lovely and plump and as a bonus my flat smells amazing!
Awesome to see you back dear Lady❤️...
Everyone, who hosted the show in your absence was just amazing...
Loads of love to Eden 😍❤️😍
Ooooh yayyyy Xmas uploads have started i look forward to these xtra festive baking videos every year nice to see u both keep up the good work
don't want create two different camps but I LOVE British vs American fruitcake, I love using dried fruit vs candied fruit. it makes all the differents
Wooow! Lovely Fruitcake. Soo tmpting. Will try ds def.
Oh Jemma ! I 'm so happy that you are back!
Mine is in the oven. First Xmas cake ever! Father in law was a chef and I never had the confidence to try it but sent for the kit and am looking forward to feeding it and icing it! Eek!
These kits have been the best thing I've bought this year! I sent my Nan a cookie kit during the first lockdown and this week me to say "if you haven't bought my Christmas present yet, I'd be very happy with more of those cookies" haha!
Crimbo cake (and wedding cake) is my favourite cake ever! We like to make ours in September and feed it right up to Christmas with rum and brandy 😍
SOO GOOD TO SEE JEMMA!! I may actually have to buy this kit, I've never made fruitcake before but this concept of feeding it a steady diet of brandy really appeals to me..
Welcome back Jemma beautiful video.
Welcome- Ben tornata, dear Jemma😛🥰🥰🥰🥰
The Chrstmas Fruitcake is amazing and I can feel the smell right here in Italy....wowww 😋😋😋😋😋😋
Bravissima Jemma and Sally👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤🥰😘💖
Jemma ❤️❤️❤️ missed you in videos. So glad to have you back
You two are adorable. Is it me or has Jemma become more laid back and sassy?
Such a joyful video vibe😝🎅🏼✨
Yay!! Jemma is back! Love them both❤️
