4. Sift together all the dry ingredients then FOLD into the creamed mixture until fully incorporated. However, do not over-mix
5. Stir the fruits into the cake mixture. Transfer into the baking tin and bake for 2hrs or until skewer poked through comes out clean or with a few dry crumbs. Once baked, poke holes into the cake let cool in pan on a wire rack for 20minutes to allow the cake to firm up and hold shape
6. Once out of the pan, feed the cake with brandy by pouring spoonfuls all over the top and brushing the sides (you need about 3 to 4 tablespoons for this size). For storage, keep it wrapped in layers of cling wrap and foil to retain it’s moisture. Repeat the feeding once every week and stop feeding a week prior to when the cake will be served
7. Decorate with fondant or leave as is. Enjoy!
