Dundee Cake

This light fruitcake (as opposed to a rich one), stuffed with raisins, sultanas, currants and peel and decorated with sliced almonds, is a great cake to take with you on holiday as it lasts for weeks. When we went on family holidays to Dartmouth we always packed several cakes. This is Mum’s variation - one slice is a mini-meal in itself and there’s so much fruit in it, it must be good for you.
