Looks nice and easy. what do you recon would happen if you didn't tip the alcohol over it and leave it to age!

Made one similar to this 2 yrs ago with balck current jam in it as a xmas cake, was quite nice, the alcohol poured over adds to the flavour and helps keep it moist, while sitting maturing. Personally i prefer the cake with curry powder in for good flavour.

Looks lovely and a great idea - I just want to know which one he chose though

I think he chose the silver fern one!. Well, Camilla was wanting him to choose that one

So if he's got any sense it will have been that one then!

A student's father got to celebrate his birthday with the prince!He cut his cake last night and said it was delicious although you could really taste the alcohol. He got one with a Maori design on it.I think I'm going to have a go at making one.

I have made it - but haven't yet iced or cut it as we are taking it away on our holiday in a couple of weeks. I'm looking forward to it after your comments - I must admit I don't usually try new Xmas cake recipes - tend to stick with "my usual" - which we have cut and started to eat - was delicious - hope Prince Charles' one is too.;-)
