How to Make Fruit Cake with Food Color?
• Preheat the oven to 175°C. Grease an 8-inch cake tin and line it with parchment paper.
• Toss the candied fruits and chopped nuts with 1 tablespoon of flour. This helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
• In a bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and creamy.
• Add the eggs one at a time and mix well. Add vanilla essence and orange or lemon zest.
• In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix gently until combined.
• Add the candied fruits and nuts and fold them into the batter.
• Divide the batter into separate bowls if you want to create different colours. Add food colour to each portion and mix gently.
• Pour the coloured batter into the cake tin, either in layers or by alternating spoonfuls to create a colourful pattern.
• Bake for approximately 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• Allow the cake to cool completely before removing it from the tin and slicing.
