Cranberry, Orange and Almond Cake
Recipe Submitted By: bakingmad
If you’d like something different from the usual traditional rich fruited Christmas cake, then try these recipes instead. They’re all suitably festive and will make an impressive centrepiece for the Christmas table - and they can all be made at the last minute!
To frost the cranberries - brush the berries with lightly beaten egg white and toss in Billington’s Unrefined Golden Granulated sugar. Leave to dry on non stick baking paper
Billington’s unrefined sugars make the most luxurious Christmas cakes because they’re full of the rich natural flavour and colour of molasses. The exceptional depth of flavour and colour of Billington’s unrefined sugars just can’t be matched by insipid refined sugars - you can really see and taste the difference.

"Excellent cake but 75g flaked almonds is way too many! 25g would be more than enough. Make sure eggs are at room temp before you start."
