Directions
Jamaican Black Fuitcake,One of the best fruitcakes I’ve ever made. My first attempt at posting this was cause to edit for clarification. The first step, mix all the fruits thoroughly with the alcohol, cover and let sit for up to a month at room temperature. The prep time doesn’t include the macerating time. If you don’t care for lime, substitute orange rind and orange essence for the lemon (or use half of each),,Thank you for posting. This looks really authentic! Please add detail of what to do with fruit. I assume you soak in alcohols for a month but then I see you also soak the cake too. Please clarify.,One of the best fruitcakes I’ve ever made.
