A traditional Dundee Cake
There are literally hundreds of recipes claiming to be that of the Original Dundee Cake.
You just have to pick one and go for it. This one uses Golden Sultanas, Raisins and Marmalade.
However authentic the recipe, it tastes delicious.

First attempt at a proper layered celebration cake.
The cake is 3 x 6" Vanilla Sponge filled with Strawberry Jam and Vanilla Buttercream.
The outer coating is also Vanilla Buttercream coloured and piped to look like grass.

The Hearts and NFL logos are printed in-house on matt icing sheets with the Football effect being made with hand cut fondant.

Tye cake topper was also made in-house.

Quite pleased with the overall result but was certainly a lot harder to make than it needed to be.
Lessons learned, now on to the next one 🎂🍰

Traditional 8" Fruit Cake, made with just over 1Kg of dried fruit and nuts. Fruit was pre-soaked in Amaretto for 48 hours prior to baking.
Once completely cooled, the cake will be wrapped and stored in a cool dark place to age and develop the flavour profile.
The cake will be fed regularly with Amaretto but won't be ready for decorating for at least 3 months.
Cakes such as this, if stored correctly, can still be perfectly edible 12 - 18 months after they were baked.
