Fruit cake has suffered from a less than positive reputation for far too many years. People joke about getting that Christmas fruit cake every year but never actually eating it. Surely, most of the frowns that come from there mere mention of a fruit cake comes from the fact that most people are eating a fruit cake recipe which isn’t very good. Which, is a shame because a really good fruit cake recipe can produce a really wonderful dessert which you would love to have as both your Christmas fruit cake and for any other time of the year.
This particular fruit cake recipe, is presented by British tv cookery legend Marguerite Patten and British celebrity chef Sophie Grigson. It really is a treat to watch them demonstrate this fruit cake recipe because it really is Marguerite Patten teaching Sophie Grigson how a proper fruit cake recipe used to be made. If we forget these recipes they will simply die and so it is wonderful to see a recipe being handed down the generations.
Marguerite Patten’s fruit cake recipe is different than most because of the coconut that is added to the fruitcake recipe and it will be certain to please even those that have sworn to hate the mere concept of fruitcake.
