Ok so in the week that was everything I ever baked ever, I made Dundee cake, as well as the Queen mother’s favourite cake that just happened to be a gingerbread sort of business. I have no idea where this came from (I think I was googling royal recipes?) but all of a sudden I was going to make Dundee cake although I’d never heard of it before – if the Queen never leaves home without a slice, it must be GOOD.
And so it’s a fruit cake. I don’t normally get excited about fruit cake, but here we are. There’s meant to be mixed fruit and currants and peel and whisky and orange marmalade and dark muscovado sugar and that combination is nowhere near as frightening as I’ve been led to believe.
This made SUCH a hefty cake. I ate a ton, and then I took it to a work meeting and we merrily hacked away at it there, and then I ate more, then I took what was left to Rushworth recently to see my fam and it was STILL GOING WHEN I LEFT. This cake is apparently the magic pudding of cakes.
So, put the kettle on. No wait – you’re meant to bake this cake and then wrap it in foil for three days (it gets better with time, I’m told) so make it before you need it. It will smell so good you will cry and have to make the Queen Mum’s gingerbread concoction to get through the agony of waiting. But yeah, go here, make the cake, and then put the kettle on.
Have you ever had it before? Got a legit nana recipe I can borrow?!
I love nana recipes. I have never made a dundee cake but I have a feeling I might have tasted it but I get fruit cakes confused. It looks pretty with the nuts on top. I think the nana recipe that comes to mind because a friend and I were discussing it recently is golden syrup dumplings – such great comfort food (I have a recipe on my blog)
Oh I haven’t made those for years!
Love any fruit cake, grew up in New Zealand and it was fruit cake paradise…they really do get better with age (I make my Christmas Cake every year at least 3 months out – Nigella has an amazing recipe)…Dundee is divine with the marmalade…I also like Albert Squares, I think they are one of the Queen’s favourites too…she is an incredible bird, I think…x
*googles Albert Squares*
I do enjoy a good fruitcake. The best one I’ve ever had is the one my Mum makes every Christmas, which is Belinda Jeffery’s tried and true one. Absolutely amazing. I only get to have some every third or fourth Christmas these days 😉
You know, I don’t think I’ve ever tried a Belinda Jeffery recipe. I think I’m missing out!

help me to understand because some say that the best placement of the tongue is EH and that this position encourages cavita especially when approaching passagio..and that its argued the position as seen in terms of harmonics allows for for more depth while ascending and more overtones while descending..how do the issues of resonance strategy bear when placing in NG position instead
