    1 tsp. vanilla essence

    1 tbl. marmalade
    1 tbl. fine grated orange rind
    1 kg mixed dried fruit
    300 g glacee fruit, chopped
    100 g slivered almonds
    180 g soya flour
    90 g baby rice cereal
    90 g maize cornflour [corn starch]

    1 tsp. ground cloves
    1 tsp. ground nutmeg
    1 tsp. ground cinnamon

    1/4 cup orange juice
    5/8 cup sweet sherry - or more juice
    20 cm cake tin greased and lined with paper.

    Recipe



    Pre heat oven to 150oC.

    In one bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy. Add eggs, one by one, beating thoroughly. Add essences, molasses, marmalade and rind.

    In another bowl, sift flours, cereal, bicarb and spices.

    Mix sherry with juice in a jug. Transfer creamed mix to a large bowl, add fruit and nuts. Gently mix in the sifted ingredients alternatively with the liquids until just combined.

    Spoon batter into cake-tin, smooth top with a wet hand. Tap on bench-top to remove air-bubbles. Wrap tin with double thickness brown paper, secured with a paperclip. Bake 3 1/2 hours at 150oC, testing with a skewer for doneness.
