We may not have a white Christmas in Texas but the snowy scene here is part of our traditional English Christmas celebration. On Christmas day we will cut into our Christmas cake. Baked from a recipe in Mrs Beeton's Cookery book, and covered with marzipan and royal icing. The British never make jokes about fruit cake. We love every crumb!Merry Christmas, gardening friends.

What a beautiful cake. Enjoy, and Merry Christmas, Jenny!
Merry Christmas Jenny. Great looking cake!
Have a great Holiday from us all over here in the Patch.
Your post makes me homesick! I haven't had a Christmas cake in years. Yours is a beauty! Merry Christmas!
I hope your Christmas and your cake were delightful Jenny! Looking forward to reading more of your blog in 2011.
Merry Christmas. And, have a great New Year, as well.
What a lovely cake!
Merry Christmas! Cake looks lovely - hope you've saved me a slice!
Gorgeous! Hope you guys have a wonderful holiday season and see you in 2011.
Have been catching up on your posts. The cake is delightful looking. I have a number of fruit cake cookbooks and recipes but have given up trying to convince others to try it! Instead I make a rich, dense triple gingerbread for Christmas which is a nice substitute.
