It's cake time again ~ not a cake laden with marzipan and icing, but a buttery fruit cake studded with whole almonds, a traditional Dundee cake. I shared my Wee Whisky Doused Hogmanay Dundee Cakes with you last year, and they are brilliant little Dundee style cakes, however, I gave them all away as gifts this Christmas and the family revolted about the lack of cake, so I made this rather large Dundee cake for New Year.
16 · A Dundee cake is a rich fruitcake made with currants, sultanas, and almonds; sometimes it will also include marmalade and fruit peel. Like many Scottish recipes, it has also been known to have a dash of whisky as well. Yum! The cake is beautifully moist with a rich zesty flavour backed up by a sweetly tart Dundee marmalade. The almonds are not just a design feature but provide a crunch and roasted flavour to an otherwise simple fruitcake.
