I tried this recipe for my grandmother who is a diabetic and loves fruit cake. Despite being told numerous times by her dr not to eat it she still would, so I decided to find her a diabetic alternative. She absolutely loves this recipe and I now have a new dish that I have to cook weekly 😂
I took this into work, and they all loved it. I liked this this but i think the top browned a bit too much for my liking, i might no cook for the extra 20 min next time, and i only used 250g dried fruit and found that was plenty.

Hi Harlee girl,
Sorry havent replied, have not been on site for quite some time.
This recipe was handed to me from a friend. I have only ever used dried fruit and it is a moist cake, so I can only imagine that with the high water content of fresh fruit, this probably only works best with dried.
I hope this helps.
I decided to wing this one, and hand chopped 3 fresh figs, a plum, a pear and half an apple to makeup the 500gm fresh fruit. Unfortunately when I went to stir the flour into the fruit, it set like glue..Determined, I cooked it anyway, in a 23cm square pan for an EXTRA 40mins than the stated time because it was still very wet when tested. Even when cooled the cake was very very wet. Not a great result. Not sure what went wrong, but any tips would be appreciated.
Would love to try this for my Grandma. What are the best fresh fruits to use? And do they need to be chopped up first, or just chop up in the thermie. Thanks.
