I normally have the Christmas cake made and stored by now but this year I already have a spare fruit cake. I made a square wedding cake thinking that it would be easier for cutting up at the reception but my daughter in law preferred (demanded!) a round one so I made another one. The original one is well fed with brandy and is stored ready for marzipan and icing just before Christmas (see my recipe in cakes).
I have started running down the freezer to make room for the sausages, breadcrumbs, luxury ice cream and all the lovely extras that I like to start getting /making for the Christmas period. I've also been tidying the store cupboards to start filling up for Christmas.
I will buy something extra every week between now and Christmas, either for the freezer or the store cupboard so it's easier and I can concentrate on the fresh stuff in the last week.
What about you?
