Christmas cake is a type of fruitcake served at the time of Christmas. As this cake is made of rich dry fruits, it’s also very nutritious. It is particularly loved with the people who don’t like moist dessert.

According to geographic location and their taste, we can add fruits to this recipe. When I started looking for recipes for cakes I have observed a few people like to add a few drops of alcohol to enhance the taste and to get puffy output.
