Christmas cakes which receipe ?

[roosterroo]

Any great recommendations? I'm making mine today and might try the one from the Jamie Oliver Christmas book, anyone made this ?

Always Delia for me.

Delia for me too.

My fruit is soaking as we speak....

A one from a very ancient Stork leaflet here, but butter instead.

Nigella every time, her Christmas book is excellent.

Another vote for Delia!

I do a fruit cake because I don’t like alcohol in my cakes or puddings. I don’t think it last as long though so won’t make it until second week of December.

Mary Berry.

I use a combo of Delia and Mary Berry. Very similar recipes.
I use whisky for the fruit soaking.
