Thanks! Hard to get a good fruit cake nowadays, but the Lions Club always comes through.
I lived with someone when I was at uni who made a truly glorious one
I am strongly in favour of the school that requires the fruit for a cake to be soaked in strong tea rather than in rum or brandy. I will, however, soak the fruit for a plum pudding in rum/brandy. Cake is different.
I make boiled fruit cakes , add booze later
Ooooh yum. That's a good method.
