Fruit cake is one of the best morning or afternoon tea snacks and a guaranteed family favourite going back generations – and this delicious recipe offers a unique twist to the classic treat. With a perfectly balanced mix of dried fruits, nuts and citrusy orange, it’s a mouth-watering cake to serve up on any occasion.
The longer you soak the fruits, the more intense the flavour becomes so if you’re looking for a heavily orange-infused sweet snack, don’t be afraid to leave the mixture for longer than the recipe suggests. Serve this up with a generous slathering of butter and a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy!
