Tips:

  • Choose the right fruits. Use a variety of dried fruits that are plump and moist. Avoid fruits that are hard or wrinkled.
  • Soak the fruits. Soaking the fruits in tea or fruit juice will help to plump them up and make them more flavorful.
  • Use a food processor. A food processor will make it easy to chop the fruits and nuts.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the fruitcake tough.
  • Bake the fruitcake in a low oven. A low oven will help to prevent the fruitcake from drying out.
  • Let the fruitcake cool completely before wrapping it. Wrapping the fruitcake while it is still warm will cause it to sweat and become soggy.
  • Store the fruitcake in a cool, dry place. The fruitcake will keep for up to 6 months in a cool, dry place.
