This beautiful Rich Fruit Cake has been baked during the bake off organised by . It had a simple selection process and came with a set of guidelines, deadlines and eliminations.
This bake off was a treasure trove of information and learnings. We were given detailed explanations about the History of the cake, the different types of fruits and the flavours they add, the different combinations of liquor, preparing the fruits, soaking, all about spices in the spice mix, the shapes and sizes of tins, preparing of the tin (it does take a lot of time and patience), getting the your batter right , the oven temp baking time , basting of the cake , and maturing of the cake .
This bake off was on for over a month. It was an amazing experience from collecting the ingredients, to getting the temp right , tons and tons of learnings, resulting in baking a beautiful and flavourful cake.
Thank you so much for being such a wonderful mentor, and a kind soul for sharing everything in detail, answering to each and every query patiently.I thoroughly loved baking with you and I am truly grateful for this opportunity.
