Rich English Fruit Cake
This is a proper, old-fashioned rich fruit cake. We start with the best available vine fruits and steep them in fine French brandy. Then we gently bake the cakes in small batches to ensure consistently high quality. Every cake is matured for a minimum of three months to be moist and full of flavour.
Size: Large - 1100g e**Baked in a 7inch tin. Several weeks shelf from despatch.
