- Check out Kravings' Christmas cake recipe: • Christmas Fruitcake | ...
The classic Calcutta fruitcake-a fixture in many homes around Christmas-time-is a rum-soaked, fruit-and-nut encrusted indulgence. Fruitcakes are a big deal in Calcutta. Come Christmas, shops spring up all over the city selling Christmas cakes, or ‘Borodin’er cake’. The tradition of baking, gifting, and eating plum cakes around Christmas is an old one, popularised in Kolkata by bakers like Nahoum and Saldanha to a wider section of the population. Families celebrating Christmas soak their dried fruits weeks in advance and book their slots with their local bakers for community baking of their cakes. Making a Christmas fruitcake at home is easy, to say nothing of rewarding. Such fruitcakes contain their characteristic booze-soaked fruits, are full of textured nuts, all of which can be customised in dozens of ways. In this recipe, we show you how to bake an indulgent Christmas fruitcake at home.

NO BAKING POWDER? This cake does not use baking powder, baking soda or any leavening agent. That is because this is an old-fashioned cake that is rich, dense, moist and heavy. Look at the cross section of the cake in the video, you will see there are no air-pockets. If you are looking for a light spongy cake, this recipe is not for you.
Thanks....i am thinking about this topic for so many days
Can we bake it in round tin.. Is the cake too dense
The same question came in to my mind. Thank you for your valuable information.
Merry Christmas to bong eats family 🎉💐🎂💐❤️❤️❤️
These videos are overqualified for UA-cam!
It should be in Netflix🥰🥰

@Sam kn hei ea log kaha se a jate he ea log fokat ka gyan pelne 😂
You said it...Along with the cake which was too much inviting the music was soothing.
Agreed 😁
The music is like Harry potter ,suspense all mixed together for Christmas
Same pinch
I was about to comment on the music as well .. the piano part does sound a bit like hp😇
And godfather too...
Agree
Exactly....it has such Harry Potter vibes
I will never bake this cake but I always watch all your recipes to the end as someone said your videos are therapeutic!
the most beautiful 'Cake- Movie' I've seen 😍
SO true that☺
Aum🙏
Coming back to this video every year since it's release and thank you everytime for making the best plum cake recipe available! It's taste, warmth and appeal is so magical and feels like a piece of Christmas itself that I send out to the loved ones! Thank you both and best wishes for the season! ❤
I made this cake last year and it was a hit! Like all my family and friends and relatives loved it so much that they couldn't stop praising it. Even though I replaced brown sugar with white. Can't wait to make it this year again. Thank you for this gem!
What a great bake it was! The 3.5 hours of patience paid well. And not to mention the fruit soaking was so much fun.
Go and watch ⌚ part 1 it is there
After searching for months, finally I've found the perfect receipe for a fruit cake.
There are many recipes on your channel which have some extra steps but then at the end when the dishes turn out to be just perfect, it all makes sense.
I have finally found a channel i can blindly rely upon knowing that at the end the dish that will turn up is going to be nothing but perfect.
Thank you so much for bringing such amazing recipes to us and simplifying such complex preparations. 😊
Much love ❤️
I wish I was your friend.. would have got a slice of this amazing fruit cake for Xmas ..
but now you have inspired us to make some.. thanks for this priceless video.. too good yar too good
Thank you for your recipe, tried yesterday and it came perfect. To add on, after spraining the soaked dry fruits, I had kept the rum aside and used the same for feeding the cake as it had a lot of the fruit juices as well. Thank you.
Did you add any baking soda or baking powder while baking?
Can you guide plz.. no where we are using baking powder/soda. Inspite did it came out well for you?
No baking soda or powder is required
I'm from Kolkata. I've gone through many recipes in you tube But Your Recipes and Presentation are Amazing!! You deserve 5 Star truly.. 👍👍
Whenever you guys upload a new video, it feels like there's a new movie in the theater! It's an absolute bliss to watch your videos! Ar eto jotno kore kajta koren, dekhteo shanti lage! Merry Christmas! ❤

Ya like those short films which win oscars
Thank you guys... We hopefully started a tradition today after our first child was born. We wish to continue this every year. The cake turned out to be delicious.Thank you Saptarshi and Inisya.. You are doing God's work.
I am spellbound at how amazing this cake turned out. I generally don't comment publicly but I had to because this cake is heavenly. Just made it today and my husband already wants another one because he has almost finished it. I followed your exact measurements and ingredients and I am so happy to get a taste of Nahoums so far away from home. Can't thank you enough for bringing Calcutta food to a whole new level. Wish you all the best!
I made this cake this time for Christmas. It's my first ever time of soaking dry fruits and making the Christmas cake. I have no words to describe how tasty this has turned out 🥰 thank you so much for this ❤️ a fan of all your videos
Did you weigh the ingredients as mentioned? As in 275 g of everything? Or did you use a measuring cup?
@@MonasLens I used a weighing scale Mona
Baked this masterpiece for Christmas and guess what!?! Undoubtedly...it was super delicious😋 Everyone liked every bit of it. This was our first baking experience. Thanks for explaining every minute details with a fantastic picturisation. You guys made our Christmas super delicious!
This is addictive...have been binge-watching and have made a few dishes as well which my family loved. As a fan of Bengali food, Bong Eats is a blessing for me. I miss my aunt's cooking, she can't make as many Bengali dishes as she used to, earlier. I learnt cooking from her and now from you. ❤️
Have been following this recipe every year religiously since I started baking for Christmas.. going to bake in few minutes.. revising last minute.. thank you bong eats 😊
Beautiful.... Getting nostalgic... Remembering my college days...
This is how real Christmas cake is made.
And that fountain pen! Amazing you guys...
Your recipe is so easy to follow and the ingredients are easily available. I followed it and baked a cake this Christmas. It turned out to be yummy 😋
Thank you
I tried this recipe and it turned out superb just like market bought.
But if I make half this recipe in 8 inch round cake tin then can you please tell me approximately how much time will it take?
christmas day -র প্রাক্কালে এই video programme একটা ভীষণ সুন্দর উপস্থাপনা। সার্থক তোমাদের নিরলস প্রচেষ্টা।
The fruitcake turned out sooo awesome! This is the 4th time I've made it in the last 2 months! :)
This is my first time making a mixed fruit cake. I made half a batch in a 8 inch round cake pan. It took 1.5 hrs to bake. I must say it turned out pretty good. Thank you for inspiring me.
How to make this rcp half. 5 lb is too large a cake for 1 person
Absolutely love your videos, pleasure and clean aesthetics 💖
If I may add to this recipe, as a baker, the texture looks a bit dry and structured for a Christmas cake, you can achieve more moisture by 1. Whizzing the sugar a bit, 2. Soften and whip butter till white before adding sugar then eggs one by one, alternatively you can mix all the eggs together, give them a light whisk and pour little by little as you you whisk 3, proportion to flour and fruits - reduce flour, increase fruits. You can boil all the presoaked fruits quickly, cool down before adding to flour egg mixture. Cake becomes very moist and holds shape too. Prick more holes and feed cake with alcohol for longer shelf life and flavour. Dark rum or brandy with cherry liqueur or Cointreau works great. Also add freshly squeezed orange juice in your cake mixture, don’t forget your baking powder and soda.
Thx for the tips. I was also feeling the same. Can u tell me y they didn't add baking soda/ powder? And vanilla extract too??. I usually add sour cream or curd for moist cake. Can I add it ro it?? Kindly reply.
First time ever in my life I baked something and it was "this Christmas Cake", I followed the recipe as is, right from soaking the fruits & till the cake made its way to the oven, the cake turned out absolutely fabulousssss can't thank you enough for sharing this fab recipe.
Did u add any baking soda or baking powder?.did it raise properly
@@Nancivlog Hi, you don't need any baking soda/baking powder because the eggs and butter (the creaming technique) will give it all the rise. The cake will be dense but moist and delicious. It is a traditional pound cake recipe and so you don't need any other leavening agents. Try the recipe as is, you'll be happily surprised.
I made this cake last weekend, and it turned out SO DAMN YUMMY. Thank you so much guys for this amazing recipe. My fav dessert for the holidays.
No need to add baking powder or baking soda ? .. how did it raise?
Cake is currently in the oven …so excited!!! Smells amazing already.
One of the best cake preparations I have seen on UA-cam! You haven't shyed from using authentic ingredients. Plus the videos have great picture and sound. Simply awesome. 4.5 out of 5 stars for you.
Baked it yesterday and turned out to be heavenly, though it took only 2 hours to get all baked. Thank you so much you guys. Merry Cristmas to y'all! 😁
+Mau Nikam That's fantastic. Merry Christmas to you too :-)
You have ironed it! Very nice! All the best for your channel…
*nailed it
@@merinajoy568 😆😆🤣 ironed it itseems
Omg I laughed so hard 🤭
1) mam your devotion toward this work is indescribable. Your each hand gesture of making food is soo clear that we the audience can easily feel the texture and the smell and the teste of the food as well.
2) the background music is perfect for chritmass.
This is the most decadent Christmas cake I've ever seen!! I mean that too without any chocolate!! Mind=Blown
This cake should be named "Mysterious Christmas fruit cake", for the music...
How is this cake raise ? You didnt add any baking powder or baking soda...
I guess some of the leavening comes from whisking the eggs and butter, other than that it remains dense.
Yes the creaming method helps in leavening...but more importantly der is no need of baking pow/soda coz the texture of cake is supposed to be dense..it tastes great that way..(like fudgy n not fluffy)
Nice touch with the Lamy Safari at the end!
Almost tomader recipe follow kore ei prothom bar Christmas fruit cake banalam ,jodio gas e ....eto bhalo hoyechhe je aneke bolechhe dokan theke kineo tara ei swad payni..thanks a ton to both of you
Fantastic Videography, Superb background music & It looks so Yummy...Well presentation, I never seen this type of CHRISTMAS CAKE in You Tube Channel, GOD bless your hands, thank you so much for sharing this video.
Exactly what I also wanted to say..
It's awesome dear..I've never seen this type of Christmas cake in any channel..visually it's a treat for me after watching this video..it's like watching a film with good background music..long live bong eat
Just spell bound !! What a preparation !! What a procedure !! And also heart snatching background music !! Please don't stop your channel ever !! Go on.. just go on !!
This one took me.back to my childhood. I remember during Christmas everyone used to gather at the church ( even non Christians ) and every house hold of the town used to get one ingredient and the mixture was made in a huge bowl and then baked in the clay fire place. This reminded me of all those days...
Omg cake looks heavenly... Now i regret not soaking the fruits... I can still make it for new year🤔...sooo want a bite of that heavenly goodness
Tweak it like Tasha u can soak those fr this year celibration ! ❤️🍰
After watching the previous video i soaked the dry fruits and was waiting eagerly for this video! And it was truly magical ♥️
Good luck with you cake :-)
Please let me know whether baking powder is required or not
+aparna choudhury Everything that is required has been mentioned in the video 🙂
The presentation is awesome.Going back to my school days.Feeling nostalgic. This really shows how a bong UA-camr is different from others.(Not meant to demean others).
I have made this cake exactly same but without alcohol , i have added orange juice & soaked all fruits for 3/4 hours ,& it turns out the best fruit cake , Thank you for sharing , Lot of blessings to your team🙏 i have distributed to kids & it just got vanished 😊
superb cake.. you just nailed it.. the way you are presenting your videos are out of world.. so soothing music.. explaining every bit of the recipe.. today you guys proved that eyes can also the capability of tasting food.. ..
as i am pure veg.. plz give alternative of alcohol and eggs in ur recipe..
Merry Christmas. U guys are a one of a kind. Hope you gain more subscribers in the years to come. Stay original.
I don't know how can someone dislike such a beautiful video 😍😍😍 just WOW! ❤️
My cake is in the oven as I speak. I hope it turns out well. The last few times I made exactly according to your recipe, it came out delicious. Although a bit labor intensive with all the collecting of ingredients, your presentation makes it foolproof. Thank you.
Your video editing skills are at amazing
Cooked it today.. It was perfect!! We finished one cake already but will let the other one sit for some time and feed it with brandy..
What a perfect plan!
I have tried this cake 2 times. It turned out amazing. It's was yummy and delicious. Everyone in my family and friends liked it. Got lot of appreciation for that. Thank you so much BongEats team.
I feel so relaxed after watching this video...it took away all my stress!
Very wonderful cake I have watched many of the vedios of yours all are good truely Bengali and explained in simple way for everyone to understand
Nc receipe same way i make for every Christmas but one thing I would like to suggest never break egg directly in bcoz sometimes eggs come rotten one that might spoil the whole batter, so better to crack in separate bowl other wise u guys rock ami tomar subscriber hocchi khub valo love u guys ❤️
My sister and I soaked the fruits in rum yesterday. We also made a load of your Pujo recipes this year, from chowmein-chilli chicken to dim-er devil. She's getting married next year and moving away, so we probably won't get a chance to do this kind of stuff very often anymore.
Thank you Bong Eats, for helping us make some memories.
That is lovely, Souradeep! Thank you for sharing this with us 💛
The visual of cake making and the this music gives a magical ✨affection which is collaborative ...❣️😍🎂👍🏻
Homesick kore dile :( missing Kolkata... Btw it's truly a visual treat! Recipe 💯 , videography awesome! Ebhabei Kolkata and banglar delicacy k tule dhoro in front of world! Again missing my Kol because of you guys!!
Why no baking soda/ baking powder?? Hiw did the cake raised?
My question too .You didn't add baking powder.
This is a close textured cake. It needs no raising agent.
@@BongEats thx for replying. Any substitute for eggs??
Not really, for this recipe. Eggs serve more than one purpose in cakes. Removing them will disbalance some reaction or the other, apart, of course, from compromising on flavour.
@@BongEats thanks again for replying. I am really great full to Bong Eats for helping me to cook cuisine of Bengal Bihar area. I had binge watched ur videos to learn how to cook properly with mustard oil. That too without onion n garlic. Thanks to guys Now I m star daughter in law of house.
Tried this cake.. nd it came so well n delicious.. couldn't take a pic except fr a slice which I kept fr myself.. it tasted heaven even though I wasn't having crystallized ginger, orange zest, dates. Rest followed same. Instead of dates I added prunes
Greetings bong eats... in my lifetime I've seen maybe 10000 cake videos/recipes, visited lots of baking channels and I m a home baker myself too but Honestly this is one of the most satisfying cake video I've ever watched! Idk y ? this video only contains a simple Christmas cake but nothing can be compared with this! Goosebumps!
Love you guys!
video ta dekhe stress free laagche !😍😍
Ekbar dekhe mon vorlo na tai rewind kore abar dekhchi..cake ta khubi sundor but tar thekeo valo total video presentation ta.... music selection is just amazing❤️🎶🎸....bong eats u r just awesome.... merry Christmas in advance...🌲🌲
হাঃ হাঃ। ভিডিওটা দেখে আমাদের বেশ বড়দিন-বড়দিন মনে হচ্ছে।
@@BongEats can i use butter milk in this recipe ??
My all time favourite recipe, this one and the chelo kebab
Canadian here. This looks like an interesting variation! I normally only use pecans or walnuts in my fruit cakes. I will give this recipe a try. :)
No baking powder or baking soda is used... Strange...
It doesn't require baking soda/powder. It is supposed to be dense and rich, not fluffy or spongy!
And that's the reason my cake has become cookie..its very hard that it can break a wall. People judge them just after watching video, first you need to try them comment. Worthless
Little baking powder won't harm .
@@poulamimukherjee739 even I wanted to know .. to add baking powder or soda.. people are appreciating without trying .
Kudos to the recipe and the cinematography !! Big fan :)
Just awsm...hats offf tomader...jotobar dekhi totobar khete ecccha kore...just fatafatii
I have and I have to add my comments ! I have been baking this recipe for almost three years now and have been following up every year ❤- it’s almost ritualistic and the background score is almost synonymous to Christmas at home. Here I am again today ! Wish you guys loads of happiness, love and Merry Christmas. Still love Nahoums ans thanks for creating it 😀🎄🥇
I don't know what's with bengalis and truti fruti 😛such an amazing cake I can almost smell the aroma about to take a mental bite and the dream breaks with that trutifruti in the first mouthful ☹️
You both look great together 😍 fabulous receipe though
Thank you, Sayani! 💛
Thank you so much for this recipe. We just followed it right now and loved it. Thank you, Merry Christmas 🎄, and Happy New Year!!

Explaining step by step it's Wonderful, thank you so much for sharing this video, in advance greetings...WISH YOU HAPPY CHRISTMAS entire your You Tube Channel Staff.
I tried this and it came out exceptionally well. Can't thank you enough for the recipe.. U ppl r just brilliant. However some humble suggestions.
1. Everyone may not have the same size cake tin so the ingredients can be taken proportionately and the cooking time should also adjusted accordingly. I took half portions and could bake it in 90 minutes.
2. I checked this video not long ago and didn't have time to soak the dry fruits for 15 days. So as I learnt from other channels and accordingly I just soaked it for 3 days and then simmered the dry fruits in gas oven with alcohol for 5 minutes. We can do it for 10 minutes if we haven't soaked it at all.

Every year on the eve of Christmas, I see this video and am satisfied with it. I will surely make this cake one day❤
THIS IS TERRIFIC! Well done Insi and Saptarshi. Big chumu.
Bah bah..... Daruuuuuun just..... Dekhei bojha jacche kotota tasty...... Acha what is the alternative to alcohol?
We have not tried it, but some viewers had recommended using orange juice. But in that case the soaking is going to be much shorter (may be overnight?)
Bong Eats Ohhhh ok ok. Thanks a lot.
Sharanya Fruit juice or wine soak for one week with spice powder and little honey.
I love the music you chose to go alone with the baking. It feels like you are doing something in a magical world
Who thought there will be such a divine bliss watching a recipe video. I have my fruits soaked for past 2 week, will bake on 23rd. Merry Xmas
+jim casper That's fantastic! Your cake will turn out great, I'm sure. Thanks for stopping by and Merry Christmas to you too. :-)
