    Break eggs into a bowl, add lime peel then pour into the batter gradually.
    Add fruits to blender and lightly blend, then add to batter.
    Add enough browning to give desired colour,
    along with vanilla essence or extract
    Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, fold into creamed mixture gradually.
    Add more rum to your desired taste.
    Pour batter into lined baking pans and bake in a preheated oven at 200 degree celsius for 1 1/2 to 1 hour 45minutes or until toothpicks comes out clean.
    Oven temperature varies so if you suspect suggested temperature may be too high…. Work with 350 degree farenheit… low and slow is always best.
    (Place water pan at the bottom of the oven)
    Prick hot cakes and soak with a mixture of rum and cherry brandy. (Any Alcohol You

    I like it really dark with white frosting (or what my grandma calls icening). I missed out on this for x-mas bc I just recently found your channel but I really want to try it for Easter instead of my usual Easter bun recipe. I love that you are so specific about listing all your ingredients bc it makes it very easy to follow your recipes. Do you have any brown stewed or curry fish recipes?
