Can i skip the part where i have to soak the fruit in alcohol? I just want to pour a little amount of flour on the fruit so it won't sink while baking. Do you think it possible?

Yes, Sarah. I think it's possible, but the cake would have a dry texture, especially if there's no substitute for the liquid ingredient.

Please ma’am I have few questions.... can I totally omit browning if I want the cake looking like normal vanilla but with the fruits in it? Will the recipe go wrong if I decide to add baking powder? I mean is there any particular reason why this recipe isn’t using a leavening agent? Can I reduce the quantity of the raisins and cherries? Thank you as I await your response😊

[@OluchiImoh]

Yes, you can. No, it won't go wrong. Yes, you can reduce the raisins and cherries. But in all, this isn't a vanilla cake recipe and with those changes, the result you'd get would definitely be different from what's in the video.

[@petrinanwankwo1059]

And why do we have to soak the fruit because i really don't i just want know please

[@OluchiImoh]

They are tastier and more plumpy when they're soaked resulting in a more flavourful cake as opposed to when used dry.
