That reminds me, I've got one on top of the cupboard. Going away for a few weeks but will make when I get back!

It was the marzipan that had the short date iirc. My kids ate it all anyway, I bought six of these kits when they were reduced to £1 each! I've used four of them just for the ingredients, I must make the last two into cakes though. I made a couple of cakes just after Christmas when the kits were still an expensive £2 a bag, lol, and they were lovely.

Well the cake is now in the oven and it smells amazing :j

When I cut the bag open the fruit bag had a tear in it, the smell of booze was so strong! It was still all moist though, fingers crossed it turns out okay

Mine is due out of the oven in 20 minutes!
I added some more cherries and almonds because we love them.
Smells and looks lovely - will need to hide it so no one eats it before Xmas though:rotfl:

oh no - you're all making me want a slice of chrimbo cake now! I hope they all turn out lovely

Mine's in the oven this very minute and smells great. Also not burnt and black looking which is why I gave up making my own...I think a foolproof kit cake is the way to go!

Made mine even though it was OOD, still got one to do. Feel like I've cheated though but couldn't resist at £2 each!!
