I'm sure it will be fine, korbo. I have reduced the amount of spice I put in my Christmas cakes and once or twice just left it out and everyone has still enjoyed them. Or if they haven't I certainly haven't heard about it.

Get a skewer and stab your cake thoroughly and chuck some booze over it

ditto as in posts #3 and #4. Will be fine. Use sherry or brandy.
