This is the first Christmas cake I ever made. I made it because my mum hadn't made one in a few years and I wanted a home made one. I made it in the September from 2 recipes in two of my mums books. I didn't know which one she used so I just evened out the amounts and ingredients between the two. I made one cake into 5 so and gave the pieces as gifts to my family and my friend Joanne. I made my own marzipan, and iced it like thus...
I also made my own Royal Icing.I never realised that it spread because I had only ever seen it in rollable form. I was really pleased that I could make it go in peaks!
