Middle tier
Beryl’s Pineapple cake
INGREDIENTS
1 tin crushed pineapple (or pineapple pieces crushed by you); 4oz butter; 8 oz demerara sugar; 12oz mixed fruit; 1tsp mixed spice (I put in a heaped teaspoon); 1tsp bicarbonate of soda;
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix all the ingredients above and bring to the boil. Allow to cool then add the following – pinch of salt (I left this out), 2 beaten eggs, 8oz self raising flour.
Stir well and put in preheated oven 1-2 hours. Gas 4/1800 C
I now line the outside of the tin with brown paper (like Christmas cake). This seems to help with the outside not being dry. Timing is temperamental and you have to check the cake is cooked approx. after 1 hour.
For the wedding I did double the quantities of everything except the sugar. I only added 12 oz.
