Method
Soak fruit overnight in brandy, if you warm the brandy it infuses faster and you can soak for a few hours instead of overnight.
Place soaked fruit, water, butter, maple syrup and sugar in a saucepan. Slowly bring to the boil then remove from heat and add bicarbonate of soda mixed with one tablespoon boiling water.
Cool for 15 minutes.
Add lightly beaten eggs, mixing thoroughly. Fold in sifted flours, spices and vanilla essence.
Bake at 160°C for 75 to 90 minutes. Cool in tin. We used a 21cm bundt tin.
Decorate with Caramel glaze and Sunbeam flake almonds.

Cooked this cake today, so easy and smells delicious.
My very first attempt at a fruit cake.
I didn’t have the cake pan suggestion I just used a normal round pan.
