My trials, tribulations and triumphs while attempting to bake my way through Lorraine Pascales book, Baking made Easy, and hopefully proving that yes, it is.

Fruit Cake
As I've said before I don't like fruit cake. So the entire cake was donated to Wrexham Symphony Orchestra. This would have been a pretty boozy cake but the only Rum we had in the house was half a bottle of Cuban Rum from our honeymoon so I had to make up the difference with tea, well you don't want a bunch of drunk musicians on your hands!! You have to soak all the fruit overnight in the the boozy liquer, then mix with a dark cake batter and bake for hours!!!
Now I have to admit that I didn't taste this, I cannot bring myself to do it so I will have to rely on the opinion of Mark, and the orchestra, who reported back that it was good. So I'm going to believe them.
