  • I love absolutely love making Christmas cake, it’s one of those traditions that takes me right back to childhood, bringing the recipe to life with my mother making a wish as we stirred.

    The whiskey gives it flavour and helps really preserves it, but the real magic comes from time. Time to rest, time to deepen, time to become something truly memorable.

    Keep an eye out for an upcoming post where I’ll show you the dish this is for, it’s one I think you’ll love☺️
