Has anyone got the recipe for the Bero boiled fruit cake, please?
I cannot remember the quantities needed.
I tried another recipe couple of weeks ago but we all prefer the Bero one

Edit - Actually forget that, it doesn't have the recipe in it, though it looks like you can send off for the latest reprint of the original book
You could try here too, claims to be the be-ro recipe

I did find the link you sent, but I cannot find the recipe at all. I have a Bero recipe book but it isn't in this one, although it has been in past booksTreat other's how you like to be treated.

It is the boiled one I'm after, I have found boiled fruit cake recipes, just not the Bero one. Thank you for looking though.
I think I may contact Bero and ask them direct xTreat other's how you like to be treated.

Not sure if this it, Easy Fruit Cake it's says for a change, try a delicious cake made in an easy but unusual way - the boiling method, this is from an old bero book cost 1/6p
12oz Mixed fruit
4oz sugar
4oz butter or margarine
1/4 pint water
1 egg
8oz bero SR flour
Place fruit, sugar, margarine or butter and water in pan simmer slowly for 20 mins
Allow to cool, then add beaten egg and stir in flour
Turn into greased 6 or 7 inch tin
Bake in a very moderate oven 300-325F gas mark 2-3 about one and a half hours
I might have added some mixed spice0 -
Aprilsun, that the one thank you xTreat other's how you like to be treated.

Coincidentally I had a dream last night about mixed fruit - I remember dates in there and apricot which may or may not have been chopped small enough, and thinking 'i'll probably get away with that'. I blame Bake Off
