Provided by Alica

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 lb prunes, pitted
1 lb currants
1 lb raisins
8oz red glaced cherries
4oz mixed peel
750mL bottle port wine (or another dark red wine)
3-4 cups white or dark rum
Keep one extra small bottle rum on hand
4 tbsp brown sugar
4 tbsp port wine
1 lb unsalted butter, softened (4 sticks)
1 lb sugar, demerara brown or white granulated (2 cups)
12 eggs
Zest of one lemon
Zest of one orange
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp almond extract
2 tsp mixed essence
1 1/2lbs macerated fruit mixture (about 3 heaping cups)
300g all-purpose flour (2 1/2 level cups)
2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground all spice
1/4 tsp ground clove
1/4 cup dark rum
1/4 cup cherry brandy

Steps:

  • Wash and dry all fruits. Mix together in a large bowl. Place fruits a little at a time in a food processor, food mill, or ninja blender. Add enough wine to grind fruits to a paste. Repeat process until fruits have been macerated. Fruit mixture should not be too watery. Add 3-4 cups dark rum. Stir and let mixture soak at minimum one week or even one year+. Adding more wine or rum periodically.
  • If using store-bought burnt sugar, skip this step. Place sugar in a small saucepan. On low heat turn sugar with a spoon until it begins to caramelize. Once dark brown, add wine and remove from heat. Let cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 275 or 300 degrees F.
  • Line 3-8in or 2-9in baking pans with parchment paper. Trim paper and set aside.
  • Bring eggs and butter to room temperature.
  • Crack eggs into a separate bowl one at a time, Remove little white membrane from each egg (optional). Beat in zests, vanilla, almond, and mixed essence. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, mix all dry ingredients. Set aside.
  • In deep mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until pale. Add eggs a little at a time. Blend well.
  • Of the macerated fruit mixture, add 1 1/2 lbs (3 heaping cups) a little at a time, continue blending.
  • Add flour mixture a little at a time- fold in with a spatula. Add 1 tbsp burnt sugar at a time until desired color is achieved. If using store bought burnt sugar, 4 tbsp should suffice for a very dark cake. Mix well.
  • Pour batter into lined cake pans.
  • Bake anywhere from 275-300 degrees F for 80-90 minutes. When cake come out of oven, pour alcohol mixture on top. When cool, cover cake with plastic wrap. Flavor is best after a few days.

  • In a small glass bowl, add raisins, currants, prunes and mixed fruit peel and 1 cup of rum and wine mixture, reserving the remaining cup to pour over the cake when it's finished baking. Soak fruits for a few hours or overnight…..or weeks or months...or years, whatever makes you happy.
  • When you are ready to bake the cake, puree the fruits (raisins, currants, prunes and mixed peel) in the food processor, along with the liquid it was soaked in, until it is a slightly coarse consistency. It will make about 2 cups. (I pulse about 60 times in the food processor for fruit that has soaked only 3-4 hours. I don't enjoy eating huge chunks of fruits!)
  • Preheat oven to 280 degrees F. Prepare two 8 inch pans, small gift tins or cupcake pans using the usual butter then flour or line with parchment paper. I do not butter the baking tins when using parchment paper since the parchment paper comes all the way to the top of the tin. I trim the excess paper around tin.)

  • Put the Mixed Fruit Peel (1 pound), Lemon (to taste) peels, Raisins (0.5 pound), and Maraschino Cherry (0.5 pound) in a food processor. Add Dry Sherry (4 cup) and blend. Blend until it is a thick but smooth consistency (with a little chunkiness).
  • Pour the entire mixture into a large bowl and add the Dark Spiced Rum (2 cup) and sherry mixture.
  • Give it a good stir to make sure the fruit absorbs all the liquor goodness and get ready to pour it all into a container that can be sealed. Set aside. The longer you allow the fruits to ‘soak’ or marinate the more flavor it will absorb and it will make for a more rounded and fruity cake, but at least a few hours. Some people store fruits for up to a year.
