Directions
Sunshine Fruit Cake,This is a unique fruit & vegetable cake. It is rather dense and moist – it doesn’t rise much at all during baking. It will last a week when stored, covered, in the fridge. Fruit medley is a mixture of chopped dried fruits (usually sultanas, apricot, apples, peach and pear) but you can substitute your favourites. Sourced from Aust. Women’s Weekly – Australian measurements used. Needs overnight soaking (NOT included in time to make).,This was delicious and very easy to do. I loved using the wholemeal flour in this and also enjoyed this cake as it was not to sweet. It did not rise much as you said and mine looked more like a slice. It was pretty yummy alone and sublime when a dollop of cream was served with it.
