Making cakes

I could feed/spike it like a C.......s cake ??

Another option to moisten it is to sprinkle fruit juice over it and allow time for it to be absorbed. Not that I've ever done that, of course!

Oh, thanks for the suggestions, spread with butter sounds just our cup of tea.

I will send my DH round, he will any cake no matter what state its in ( not that im saying your cake is a state)

Auntieflo I expect it will be fine but if it is a little dry then you could serve it as a pudding, slightly warmed and topped with ice cream or custard. I know certain 'boys' who would do anything for that kind of pudding!

ooh snap Shysal!

Auntieflo....it will probably be fine....back in the bad old days my Mum always added a higher proportion of flour to a fruit cake than is now fashionable.....10oz to a 6oz fat recipe etc. It helped it go further.....and in worse case scenario you could always treat it like a Fruit loaf, like the Welsh thing I can't spell....and spread the slices with butter Yum.

If you don't own up to your mistake I am sure the fruit cake will be eaten too! If dry you could always serve it like a fruit loaf spread with butter.
Feeling hungry now!
