Brandy or Rum. Not Whisky

Whiskey serves as a great substitute for brandy in a fruitcake. Although whiskey comes from fermented grain mash while brandy is made from fermented grape mash, the process is so similar, that the flavor will be similar as well. Be cautious, though. Some people may find the alcohol flavor more noticeable in a whiskey-soaked fruitcake. Many don’t notice any difference while others may find the flavor preferable. When using whiskey, simply use the same amount as you would brandy, and you should be in good shape

I used oil instead of butter.

To preserve my cakes, i put them inside a freezer bag and put in the fridge. it lasts long.

Cakes made with cooking oil have a weird smell and taste

What is the difference between baking soda and powder?

They are both different and both can be used for baking.

Ideally I use only baking powder for cake but this particular cake is a sponge cake and the baking soda helps it to be more fluffy.

Mike008:
Nice. You didn't allow the dough to rise though. I thought the dough must rise though

That quantity of cake for the stated ingredients is fair.
Thank you.

Mike008:
Cant i just mix those stuff with my hands. eggs in my blender is yucky

You can mix with your hands but it will take more effort to mix properly.

Eggs in the blender is not that yucky ooo
The mixture of sugar and the other ingredients makes it less slimy.
And I wash mine immediately after mixing.

RoyalBlu:
Nice one OP.

Will try this out tomorrow. My boys have been singing it to my ears all week.

Thank you.

lalalista:
What did u use to bake it? Is it oven? I don't have oven. What's an alternative way of baking it?

I used pot instead of oven.

watchindelta:
Here in italy we don put butter in cake

I bake with butter too.
This particular one is a sponge cake, I prefer oil to butter especially as I would be mixing with the blender.

udomma1005:
Just a pity no need for preservatives in my household. My son and I are dangerous! No size of cake can last more than a day, if it last for two days, then I traveled the yesterday
We definitely can't allow a cake to enjoy the comfort of our home, please!

This picture of the chocolate cake is everything.

Please allow cakes to enjoy the comfort of your home

Testimony1988:
Which one is vanilla essence, I need clarification please.

It's a flavour for cakes, there are others but I used vanilla for this.

chris51:



You can put sand in a pot.
Put it on fire. It can be kerosene stove, or any cooking fire you are used to. Let it be medium fire.
Allow it to heat up.
Put your mixture in pan.
Put the cake pan in the pot.
Cover it.
It makes like oven.

Thank you.

You can use any oil of your choice or even butter.
That was what was available for me and it wasn't weird in any way.

Mix with a spatula and a bowl.

It's that transparent nylon bag with clip locks.
It has variety of colours too. It's used to preserve food in the fridge or freezer.

You can ask of it from the people selling nylon bags.

Channah1:


Yep. I heard refrigerating it is better.

Thanks.

Thats what spar n the big malls do all over the world

Nice one, your explanation made it so easy.

I will make mine whenever am less busy.

TenQ:
Use brandy. The highest concentration you can find

apply brand to thd cake?

LogicBomb8:

Actually, soak your fruit for 2 days and above in brandy, then use the resins to bake. If not, just add some brandy (can't tell you of any measurements) to your cake.

gloryhomemaker:


All purpose flour.

What brand of All purpose flour?

What you simply did was to use blender as a Mixer

The oil is too much, use olive oil next time
