    Hi Natasha, I tried your recipe today and my cakes came out great. I was able to make six pans plus one additional small pan for me. I am so amazed how moist and light the cakes are. I had my fruits soaking for a month and used the full bottle of fruits for a rich cake. I will have it soaking in the liquor mix for a few days before I wrap it up and give them out. This is the best recipe thus far. Thx! I am going to get some more fruits and have them soak for a year because as you know making this cake is not cheap. Lol! Blessings always!!!
