    such a lovely, easy recipe. Very similar to my Mum's old recipe. We add 1tsp mixed spice and half a tsp cinnamon. I also use raw sugar. Fail proof. Always moist. A family favourite 😊

    Really easy to make....can’t wait to taste it. Many thanks to the others for tips.....I halved the sugar. Also used “Reverse” when mixing the flours and I also added the spices.

    WINNING CHRISTMAS / FRUIT CAKE!!

    One of my children LOVES fruit cake and I have struggled to find a good (and simple) recipe... until today. This is absolutely delicious and is going to disappear far too quickly!! A very similar recipe is on Cookidoo which gives half the sugar, so that's what I did too, and it is plenty sweet enough (for us) like that. This is going to be a regular all year round for me now. LOVE IT!! Thank you!

    Great training snack. I make this with reduced sugar as something for my son to take on his training rides. It usually doesn’t last long as the rest of the family love it too.
