Feeding a fruit cake

I made a fruit cake for Christmas last weekend. The fruit was soaked in sherry beforehand, it is now all wrapped up tightly and looks and smells delicious. I’m wondering how often I should ‘feed’ it with more sherry? I don’t want to saturate it but it was a little dry last year by the time Christmas came along.

I do mine once every 2 weeks until December then every week until I ice it

That sounds good. I’m hoping I can resist cracking into it before Christmas, I don’t ice mine but I do eat it with loads of Wensleydale cheese...
