Sometimes my friends and family ask me to make a big cake for a special occasion. Last year one of my best friends asked me to make a chocolate fudge cake for her boyfriends 30th birthday. Shortly after that my own boyfriend asked me to make a Christmas cake (something I had never done before) so I did. I have to say, as someone who mainly makes sponge I quite enjoyed making a fruit cake. Soaking the raisins in brandy and topping up the cake on the run up to Christmas was very exciting. I also had great fun decorating it with marzipan and royal icing.
