Like this recipe, have been using for 2 years now. Get 2 cakes from one mixture.
Place the mixed fruit and wine in a bowl and leave to soak (for at least half an hour, ideally overnight).
Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Grease and flour a 21cm high-sided round cake tin.
In a large bowl, cream the Tararua Butter, Chelsea White Sugar and Chelsea Dark Cane Sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, then beat in rum, lime zest, lime juice, almond essence and vanilla. Stir in the wine and fruit mixture.
Sift together Edmonds Standard Grade Flour, Edmonds Baking Powder, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and salt. Fold into the batter, being careful not to over-mix. Pour into prepared tin.
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with Chelsea Icing Sugar before serving, if desired.
NOTE: recipe updated December 2022 - now makes one cake rather than two (double the recipe if you need two cakes).
Wonderful recipe. I put the fruit to soak for a month....easy recipe to follow, must do it again.
