fruit cake
Fruitcake with all its fruits and nuts has been around for centuries. Making a rich fruit cake is a very laborious process. They are made well in advance and stored in a cool, dry place so that they retain their traditional taste and flavor.
The procedure for making a fruitcake takes a few days. First, the fruits and nuts must be prepared. They are soaked for 2-3 days in alcohol, preferably brandy or rum. If you don’t want to use alcohol, you can substitute it with fruit juice. The cake recipe must be strictly followed in order to get the desired result of a wonderful and tasty cake. For those who don’t like a particular fruit or nut, they can be substituted based on individual tastes. The only thing to remember is that the weight specified in the recipe for fruits and nuts must be maintained.
After preparing the fruits and nuts, the dough is made. All the fruits and nuts are mixed into the batter and baked. Fruit cakes are baked at a low temperature for a long time until ready. It should be tested with a cake tester to see if it is completely done. One point to remember when baking these cakes is to keep a pan of water in the oven. This prevents the cake from drying out. They must be cooled before removing them from the container.
All the effort put into making fruitcakes is well worth it, as they are an excellent, great-tasting treat any time of day.
