I've never been that keen on Christmas cake, strange really as I love Christmas puds and mince pies. Then when they put marzipan on it, that just gives it the final kiss of death as far as I'm concerned.
I did like the snow scenes on the cakes my mum did when we were kids though :wink:

Logic merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

I recently discovered Ecclefechan Tarts, which are scrummy. Have made my own first ever batch and they will be replacing Mince Pies in this house for Christmas. Probably need a Government Health Warning though, due to the amount of butter.
