@HectorAwol

What is the oven temp? The video says 130 and then later 170

[HectorAwol]

Woops! Being a fruit cake... 130 would be best. Bit too hard to edit it now that it is online but thanks for letting me know! Hec.

a few questions:

1. does it stil taste sweet even though theres no sugar??

2. what other fruits can you use???

3. does it have to be baking paper, or cn u just simply apply oil to the dish???

4. how much fruits do you need?? in cups please??? or grams wud wor too thank youu

love the recipe btw, soo simple and easy to make, i might just try it tonightt =)

[HectorAwol]

Apologies for the delay. 1. Yes it still tastes sweet because of the amount of sweet fruit inside!. 2. You can use any dry fruits ie dates, sultanas, currents, cherries etc and you can mix it up with a little chopped fresh orange etc. 3. Oil should be fine but advantage of baking paper is it insulates between the batter and the tin/glass.

and 4. I use 1 kilogram of mixed dried fruit (1000grams). I would assume it would be about 4 - 4.5 metric cups of fruit. Please let me know how you go.

can i use ordinary flour with baking powder?what's the proportion for the baking powder?thanks a lot...

[HectorAwol]

Hi there, thank you for your comment. Yes you can use plain four and baking powder. I think ratio is 1 teaspoon of baking powder to 1 cup plain flour. Maybe google the ratio. Thanks and let me know how you go! Hec.

You should be salesman, cause i got so excited about this cake I baked it myself on the very same day I saw this video.

[Merlikas]

And it really was good and SO sweet. I suppose I should have put more flour but it still was really good.

Your fruit cake looks so much better than the store bought ones! I'm going to try this on the weekend.

[HectorAwol]

Hello, yeah I was surprised myself how good it was when I made it. It really does save you creaming butter and sugar and adding eggs etc etc.  Please let me know how your cake goes. Thanks for your comment.
