Join us and create your very own 6” Christmas cake from scratch where we’ll be using a variety of dried fruits soaked in alcohol like brandy\, rum\, whisky\, or sherry to bring out the rich flavours.\nThis Christmas Day bake has roots right back to the Middle Ages when dried fruits became more accessible.
