I haven't done a cake for years
I do puddings though - so easy just to throw things together and steam away - I've even got a microwave recipe for last minute; lovely taste but not as black as traditional
I`m the only one that eats xmas pudding so don`t usually bother with that. I love christmas cake - I usually make one then regret it when I eat too much! I like lashings of brandy and cherries in mine, but leave out the nuts.
