I also think good bakers are like good gardeners – they have a special something.

Somehow somewhere the UK fruitcake got lost in translation when it hit US shores centuries ago.

Catherine – You are right most of New Zealand’s baking was heavily influenced by the UK.

Great post – I think fairy cakes and butterfly cakes would probably have travelled to NZ from UK??

My wife would extremely be interested since she’s the domestic one, although the lolly cakes, seem like an adaption of fruit cake. The adage that mixing two great things makes one greater thing doesn’t always work.
