Thank you so much for this recipe. I've tried many recipes and by FAR this one is the BEST!! What I love about this cake is it's not too wet/moist. It's just right.

I have used this recipe twice and was very pleased with it. I altered the ingredients just a little, and my cake was everything I hoped it would be, moist and delicious! Thank you so very much for sharing this recipe.

Could I use only rum in place of wine here with equal amount?

The fruit wine really adds a nice sweetness. Grab any fruit wine that you can find or Brandy!

@@lovelymommytv5567 yeah! I feel like brandy will make it bitter. I tried the first time with port wine + dark rum and I think the wine made it quite 🔥. And so I'm thinking only dark rum. But yes, will also try fruit wine, never tried that😬🙌

Guys, do this recipe, it's so amazing, fluffy, moist. I already had the fruit soaked in whisky, rum and black beer. I altered to 1,5 cup of sugar, I've used 1 tbsp of mixed spice, instead of browning, I've used 2 tbsp of cocoa. It took me 3 hours in the oven, but it was worth the wait ❤ Def it's going to my recipe book 👏🏾

[@lovelymommytv5567]

Thank you!! I love your alteration.

This cake turned out delicious. I also added some ground ginger & almond and butter extract to my cake for extra flavor. I had to adjust my baking time though, at 1.6 hours the outside of my cake was firm but inside was very wet so I lowered the oven temperature an put it back in there for another 35 mins or so.I’ll try cooking it on 325 next time to see if I prefer the difference.
