A Luxury Fruit Cake for Christmas
An exquisitely moist, gluten-free fruit-cake to share with family & friends
Choose from five fabulous recipes – all moist and rummy, made with
organic fruit and Appleton Jamaica Rum
As featured in the Telegraph Magazine ...
A two-star Great Taste Award winner. The judges said:
"This packs a punch. It has a good depth of molasses flavour which is powerful but does not overpower the fruit itself, which comes through well."
And Highly Commended at the Free From Food Awards.
Dark, moist, silky-smooth and intensely alcoholic, this Jamaican celebration cake is made with organic vine and citrus fruit, finely chopped then steeped in Appleton Kingston 62 Jamaica rum and Amontillado sherry.
Sweetened with organic blackstrap molasses, no added sugar. All ingredients gluten-free and dairy-free. No nuts used, but not guaranteed free from nut traces.
In the Caribbean, we serve this cake unadorned. It's a lovely, light alternative to Christmas pudding. Serve a slice with a spoonful of rum cream, if you like:

This tousled blonde may look rough-cut, but it's a real gem. The judges at the Great Taste Awards said it had:
"a good texture and evenly distributed fruit. Very generous with the booze ... good flavour throughout."
It's made with organic fruit – cherries, plump sultanas and fudgy hand-dried pears, all steeped in Appleton White Jamaica rum – and packed with chunks of delicately sweet organic Lübecker marzipan. With just a spoonful of unrefined Muscovado sugar, all ingredients gluten- and dairy-free.
4-in round (400g) £37.00

Luxury Christmas Cake with dark rum frosting
Covered with organic Lübecker marzipan and luscious dark rum frosting, this cake was a hit with the judges at the Great Taste Awards this year! They said it was:
"an indulgent-looking cake, generously packed with fruit and nuts. The aroma is wonderful, the flavour is fabulous, with such interest and variation – the fruit, nuts and rum working in harmony to give great complexity and length and a very enjoyable eating experience ... "
" ... a unique-looking cake. Wonderful boozy, molasses aroma and plenty of plump fruit, well distributed through the sponge. The cake cuts well ... it has the perfect amount of good quality marzipan, and a good ratio of icing / marzipan to cake. The marzipan is delicious, not too sweet and a great texture."
Made with the finest organic ingredients, this deliciously dark, moist cake is a chunkier, more traditional Christmas cake than my Jamaica Cake, and beautifully moist. Made with organic vine and citrus fruit steamed in Appleton Kingston 62 Jamaica rum and Amontillado sherry, with toasted almonds in the mix. Sweetened with organic blackstrap molasses, no added sugar.
