So I remembered to take a snap of the rich fruit cakes as I was mixing…. these cakes contain the best dried fruit I can buy and then soaked to plump those little sultanas , currents and Raisins upto soft succulent ones… we dont like dry gritty fruit here!! And only real butter goes in as well.

A generous helping of whole cherries also included 😉

Need a good strong arm to mix this up…. then into the oven for several hours before it gets lashings of spiced rum or brandy….
