Steps to make Christmas fruit cake:

1. Take a glass jar and soak all chopped dried fruits in alcohol or fruit juice. - I have used apple juice here, you can use orange juice, cranberry juice or grape juice. - If using alcohol, preferred is rum or you can also use brandy, whisky or vodka.Ensure dried fruits are chopped well (approx. ½ cm in size). This is important for even cake. - Do take a good shake after you pour juice or alcohol in the dried fruits & let them soak for at least 1 week or 2 day.
2. First of all prepare loaf tin. Grease tin with butter and line with parchment paper. Line outer side of the tin with aluminum foil strap to restrict too much heat. - Ground dried spices (nutmeg/cinnamon/black pepper & cloves) into the fine powder. - Now take a big bowl and start whisking softened butter using hand whisk till smooth and fluffy (avoid electric beater). - Mix brown sugar and whisk again till everything is mixed well.
3. Start adding eggs one at a time and whisk. - After adding all eggs, incorporate orange pulp, almond powder and powdered spices using spatula. Do not use whisk here. - Now it’s time to sieve all-purpose flour in the cake batter and fold using spatula.

6. Once cake is completely cool, demold carefully, poke hole using a skewer and feed your cake using remaining juice of the soaked dried fruits.
