Additional Information

Recipe & flavour

Recipe: Our Whisky Fruit Cakes are made with pure British butter, juicy sultanas, raisins, currants, sumptuous cherries, tangy orange and lemon peel, and a pinch of spice. Before baking, the dried vine fruits are soaked overnight in a smooth Scottish whisky. 

Flavour: Deliciously rich, dark, moist, and fruity. The whisky infusion provides an extra-special taste that's not too strong, allowing the full flavour of the fruits to still come through.

Presentation

Packaged in a beautiful keepsake tin, exclusive to Buckingham Cakes, decorated with a specially commissioned painting of fruits by a local artist. 155mm diameter and 90mm high.
