[@christineandrusiak610]

Sooo glad you made this video, only this morning I bought all my ingredients to make a Xmas cake and now I’ll be baking it in my airfryer. Thanks so much 🤗

[@carolterrey3083]

This cake looks really brilliant, gonna give this a try. Thank you both

[@anne9576]

That cake looks delicious I like how you use what we’ve all got a pint pot to mix eggs a hand mixer not like these big fancy machines that’s not needed your so down to earth that’s what we all love about you both don’t ever change 💕

[@butlersempire]

Thanks Anne.

[@arthurvasey]

A suggestion - instead of egg, use Warninks Advocaat!

[@margaretrobinson1670]

[@julievickers45]

[@annefell2664]

Another great video. It takes me back when you talk about putting brown paper round the tin and tying with string. I will have to work out a smaller quantity for my air fryer for a mini Christmas cake. 🎄

[@AvaT42]

That was impressive. I would not have thought an air fryer would cook a Christmas cake that well. A simple recipe, i like that. I was surprised you took out the basket, i thought you would need the air circulation on the bottom.

[@MichFF21]

I’ve never made a Christmas cake, but I’m going to now in my Cosori thanks to you two!!! Happy days. Cheers Michelle from Down Under

[@butlersempire]

Hope you enjoy Michelle.

This comes at the best time as I wondered if I could do a Xmas cake in my new air fryer. Your recipe is similar to mine, so I will follow your directions and hope my cake comes out as brilliantly as yours! It will also keep my kitchen cooler here in Australia where we still make traditional recipes. Thank you so much.

[@yamyamsogn5338]

Great video and seeing the pub glass reminds me of my late Mother who always took a big bag with her if she was going out for a pub lunch in case a glass accidentally fell in it 😂

[@carolejenkin454]

lovely Christmas cake well done

[@butlersempire]

Thank you so much 😊

[@phillloyd5233]

My cake has been made for about 3 weeks now, topping it up with a little Brandy each week. I can't wait to try it. Looks great and so moist (one of your favourite words!) 🤣🤣🤣

[@bigsteve9291]

Well done sharon looks fab allways had christmas cake only home made never that horrible shop bought rubbish but since mum past must 15 years now not had any seeing you do this and making it only needs the pound counselor in now used to be a sixpence when we where kids you given me the confidence to have a go this year hope it turns out as good as yours does and as usual guys great video and thanks for sharing

[@msgemini7562]

Hi. I've recently found your vids and what fun you are to watch. So inspiring & full of common sense. And when I saw this Christmas cake vid I just had to make it. So now I've used my new air fryer & have a lovely cake thanks to you both. Look forward to more gems from you both, Hannah

[@butlersempire]

Thanks for watching, glad you liked the video Hannah

[@mariajefferies8555]

I have just gotten my new Ninja air fryer woohoo, I’ll be trying all your recipes ❤

[@sandradent65]

I've been waiting for your Xmas cake video. Your cake looks lovely, it's cooked really well. When I do mine in the fan oven it takes just over two hours, I always put a dish of water in the oven so the cake doesn't dry out. I will be making mine in the air fryer. I haven't got a bottom bit in mine, the full basket lifts out. I was a bit worried the top might have burned but it turned out lovely. I bet you can't wait to try it. You will have to can a taste testing video when you cut into it so we can see Martin's face.

[@iris80G]

I love watching you two .That xmas cake looks amazing if I make that now I might not be able to wait to eat it before xmas lol.

[@iris80G]

I will want to eat it before xmas I mean. 😂

[@janicehilton4015]

Thank you going to make it tomorrow 😊

[@EmptyGlass99]

That's what my great aunt Margaret used to do - make her cake in October and keep it in the back room wrapped up in foil, and drizzle brandy over it occasionally. She'd always make us one too. I was introduced to booze at a very early age :D

[@annsutherland6553]

Looks great

[@karengoldsmith9114]

Well done Mummy and Daughter, both cakes looks amazing xx

[@butlersempire]

Thanks so much 😊
