Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree~~

Domo goes like, Waahh~!


I got a little too excited for Christmas this year, so I made a bombastic Christmas Cake!


A friend asked me to make a fruitcake shaped like a Christmas tree~ And at first I wasn't too keen on making it.


First of all... I hate fruitcake! (>_<)  - bleh..! I don't like the super sweet and super chemical tasting preserved fruits. I also am not too skewed towards brandy...


Secondly, when I first thought of a Christmas Tree cake, I thought about those kiddish kind that lies on the board and is dotted with M&Ms. The homemade kind that Mums might had make for kids parties..

But then, Eureka! I thought of making one that Stands right UP! I got so excited over the idea, I could not sleep!

Without further ado, I present you my Xmas Tree Cake!

Hi Santa!
Santa's thinking: Whats that thing?? Why is it looking at me like that?!

Oh, and to solve my fruitcake hate crisis - I made my own version.
A buttery base cake, with Chopped Walnuts, Fresh Diced Lemon Peel, Raisins, Chopped Glazed Cherries and Chocolate Chips!
