Irish Traditional Christmas Cake

Into December, a rich Christmas atmosphere began to cover every city of large and small.

One of the Christmas traditions in Ireland is eating fruit cakes.

Christmas cakes are made in many different ways, but generally they are variations on the classic fruitcake. They can be light, dark, moist, dry, heavy, spongy etc. The cakes are made in many different shapes, with frosting, royal icing, a dusting of icing sugar or simple and plain.

The spices and dried fruits in the cake are supposed to represent the exotic eastern spices brought by the three Wise Men to the newborn King! The fruit is all soaked overnight in the whiskey, in a covered bowl, before use.

A major part of this tradition focuses on making fruit cakes in October, giving the cake enough time to mature its flavor. The cake will get better over time.

Whatever the type of fruit cake your Christmas cake is, no matter what kind of fruit you add, an ultrasonic food cutter helps your cake cutting line.
