A bit late I know but I finally got round to baking our Christmas cake tonight.
For some reason I really wanted to make a square cake this year but decided i could not afford a new baking tin.
So its the usual round cake again,next year i will have that square tin though.
Will feed it with Brandy for the next 2 weeks before I marzipan and Ice it .
Lets hope it tastes as good as it smells














Wow it looks really really good with no burnt bits
Funny how we always used to bake Christmas cakes in round tins. It is not practical for cutting is it and I moved to square a long time ago.
Looks wonderful Sally and as I never met a Christmas cake I didn’t like. One of my favourite things.
Yum yum! Don’t know if you noticed but i picked a bit off and ate it lol was very nice!

jmb kicking myself now for not getting that square tin ..but don’t suppose it will make it taste any different
Lord Andy .. yes i did notice and I blamed your brother…..
Does it really matter Round or Square, you made a cake ..so be proud…I have never made a christmas cake ever!
Looks great. I think that round cakes look nicer somehow even if they are not practical for cutting.
I am not a cake person but I do eat Christmas cake.
Looking forward to seeing the fully decorated product
IF ihad seen it with lord andy i would have had abigger bit . ESPECIALLY IF THE OTHER ONE WAS GOING TO GET THE BLAME.ha ha ….
