Christmas Cake

I baked this cake for Christmas using Rachel Allen recipe. It is a moist cake, and perfect for the season. I soaked the fruits in alcohol overnight (longer than the recipe indicates) and baked the cake 2 days before Christmas. It is time consuming, like any Christmas fruit cake I guess, involving lot of chopping of fruits and preparation. There is also an additional almond icing in Rachel's recipe that I skipped this time. Maybe I will plan better next time and complete with the almond icing.
