    Made it last year and it was perfect!!
    Woke up at 2:00am this morning searching UA-cam for the recipe again which wasn't difficult as I hit the like button last year.
    Thank you , a blessed and healthy Christmas and new year to you and your family 🙏🏽🙏🏽

    i have been baking these cakes for 6yrs now, started with a simple recipe, moved to more flashy ones with breadcrumbs and supposedly better wines etc, trust me when i tell you guys simple is best. The best balance is between the sweetness from the sugar and fruits versus the slight bitterness from the wine and browning/burnt sugar, find that balance. This recipe here and her method of having everything ready separately will make this easy for you and produce delicious cakes with balance of ingredients, the yield is also perfect as you don't want to be in the kitchen for only one to two cakes, follow along perfectly and then experiment.
    This is a great video and thanks for sharing to the benefit of so many.

      @ricardo1522 Місяць тому +2

      @ these days I use 3 cups each of flour and fruits instead of 2.5, I also use a teaspoon of baking powder per cup of flour.

    GM sis, I just want to tell say thank you, for providing the ingredients when others have us going to links to retrieve ingredients. And I'm glad you don't take 20- 30 mins to teach us how to do something. I myself have a very short attention span and its so unnecessary for a long drawn out video. I did try your cake box/ vanilla pudding hack on the this black fruit cake. Its was so awesome, easy and delicious. Thank you so much !!!🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲😊

      Girl you certainly know how to bake a Fruit cake, not plum pudding for cake. Not gummy and pasty, whenever one finishes a slice there should be a little crumbs or you should be able to eat another slice. Well thought, good Job. 🙏🏽😀🎂❤
