Looks good, I think I’ll place the mulling spices in a cheese cloth and just remove before mixing in the cake box, very nice recipe, thank you for sharing 😊

I would have put the spices in a bag to soak and then take them out 🤷

Whhooo girl! Drunk fruit cocktail. Hey. That could be a thing…this looks super interesting. I enjoy watching you cook. I’ve been cooking since I was 9 with both my folks. I still remember some tricks!!

Imagine the awful taste when you bite into those spices which should have been removed...🤮

looks delicious Justine thanks for sharing your idea on fruit cake. your simply the best in my opinion. my sweet friend. 🙂

[janieloyd]

Not sure why you left all those whole spices in there, yucky!

I like using milk instead of water when baking.
Were the spices overbearing since you ramped up the spices even more? In someone else's baking video, they said that you really have to love spice cake because the flavor is very strong.

You end up tipping the fruit into a bowl to add cake mix so don't macerate the fruit in the can where you left the mulling spices to work only on the top layer. Mix it all in the bowl at the start but cut your spices way back. You only need 1 cinnamon stick for this amount. And only 1 tsp spices. Take care though, some mulling spices will be gritty and hard if eaten. It would be better to use ground spice to avoid that. I know you like to overdo sessoning but in cookery, less is often more in terms of flavour.

I was wondering if you could use the discarded Brandy in place of the water. Seems like that might be pretty tasty. 😉

When i saw the loquor go into the fruit coctail, I was all in!

[jilljacobs]

Some people are so rude with comments. Not nice this is for food and I would love to try this

[maxinemcelroy]

All the spices and the cinnamon in the fruit would make an awesome air freshener

[shannonevans]

Justine Justine! This might be a hit for thanksgiving at my brother's house! Adult only fruit cake? They would ❤it. Thanks

Someone is going to break a tooth 😢… you can make a cheese cloth pouch for those loose spices..
A square of cheesecloth cut to the right size.., draw up each corner together then gather up sides, then tie a good strong string around that …pull pouch out of fruit when ready to make cake…

Did you drain the fruit cocktail before you put the brandy in?
