RichHL Nov 2020 4:30pm, 29 Nov 2020 14,804 posts	Quote Pin RichHL I made my own Christmas cake one year because I loathe cherries. Cost me an absolute fortune and people complained because there weren't any cherries in it. Sod Christmas.
Rosehip Nov 2020 4:40pm, 29 Nov 2020 18,743 posts	Quote Pin Rosehip I can't stand glace cherries or that nasty hard peel stuff, I don't like nuts in cakes either. Have always made my own cake, pudding and mincemeat - because that's what mum and grandma did and I use old family (probably ex Mrs Beaton or Bero) recipes.
