Christmas cake

We made several Christmas cakes last year. Usually we make about 12 to give as gifts but last year, we cut it to 8 as obvious travel restrictions meant we weren’t seeing the same circle of friends/relatives. I have just found 3 full 8inch cakes, in tins while clearing out the cupboard getting ready for this year’s. One with marzipan&icing, wrapped in cellophane & 2 plain with no icing/marzipan. Look fine, small fine and, yes I had to, taste fine. Apart from the green iced holly had bled slightly into the white, they look perfect. Hope this isn’t my epitaph!
