Not Too Late Christmas Cake

November 18, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Some people begin making their Christmas cakes as early as October. Indeed, some years I too have soaked the fruit as soon as Halloween is over. I have been debating whether to make one at all this year. I didn’t make one last year because the one in the previous year was awful. I had … [Read more…]

Orange and Ginger Spiced Christmas Cake

November 26, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

The problem with writing about this year’s Christmas cake recipe is that most cooks (unless you made it in July) will not have tasted it yet. Undeterred, I am bringing you my 2015 offering with a warning. If it turns out wrong, don’t blame me. I have based my cakes in the past on Mary … [Read more…]

My non-Christmas cake 2014

November 29, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I make a Christmas cake every year. It’s a boozy affair started sometimes, as early as October, and I wouldn’t recommend driving after a slice. I didn’t make one when I was pregnant with Boo as I selfishly thought why should I if I can’t eat it myself? I am afraid I have taken the … [Read more…]

Christmas cake efforts 2013

December 22, 2013 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I love baking. I prefer the decorating to the actual baking but it is very hard to get to the decorating stage if you don’t crack the eggs in the bowl if you know what I mean. At the beginning of November I made my Christmas cake. I am not loyal to one recipe. I … [Read more…]

Oh brandy….you came and I took without sharing…

November 25, 2013 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

So I try to make a Christmas cake every year. I try out different recipes to spice it up a bit (pardon the pun). I even made my own wedding cake-we did get married at the end of December so it was almost Christmas. I have a problem though. Remember the song: As I make … [Read more…]
