    I have sold quite a few with alcohol in them, and i didn't realise that you had to have a license. I thought that if you were selling them as a gift and not drinking them on the premises that that was alright, although I'm probably wrong.
    I mainly do cakes for orders and most of them request alcohol. I do have a fair on the bank holiday weekend, which I will be thinking twice about making them up with a bottle.

    I have just googled this quickly and from what i can see you DO need a licence however if you say on your label that you get a FREE bottle of wine this is fine as you are not actually selling it.

    I think i am going to contact the local licencing office and ask, this may be a good idea for you too.
