Step by step
Get ahead
The cake will keep, well-wrapped and in an airtight container, for up to 1 month. This is already quite a moist cake but you can feed the cake with a tablespoon of rum a couple of times during storage.
- In a large food bag or a mixing bowl, combine the raisins, currants, mixed peel, dried cranberries, orange zest and juice, apple juice and the rum. Cover and soak overnight.
- Preheat your oven to 160°C, 140°C fan, gas 3. Grease and line the base and sides of a deep 20cm round cake tin.
- In a freestanding mixer, or using an electric hand whisk, beat together the butter and sugar until very pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl mix together your spices along with the plain flour, baking powder, ground almonds, milk powder and a large pinch of salt.
- TipMilk powder is a clever trick which gives the cake the creamy flavour characteristic of stollen, but you can leave it out if you prefer.
- Add the vanilla seeds and 1 egg to the creamed mixture, beat thoroughly, making sure you scrape down the sides. Continue adding one egg at a time and beating it in thoroughly before adding the next. If the batter does start to split, beat in a tablespoon of the flour mixture.
- Gently fold in the flour mixture, and then add the cubed marzipan, along with all of your soaked fruit.
- Spoon the batter into the tin and level the surface. Bake for 1 hour and then cover the top with foil to prevent further browning. Cook for another 30-45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Make sure you are not poking into a gooey marzipan section.
- Leave to cool in the tin then turn out and wrap in foil and keep in a cool, dark place until needed.
