NORTH LEEDS LANTERN From the Kitchen Witch Heather McNally Portlandâ€"onâ€"the-Rideau Edible Christmas Presents The following recipes are made in my family every year. I particularly wish to share the cake recipe. lt belonged to my grandmother and is a lovely alternative to the heavy and dark, traditional wedding cake. It keeps well and can also tolerate the addition of liquor wrapped cheesecloth. White Gumdrop Cake Ni ht Before Preparation (Remove black gumdrops) Chop fine and mix well: 1 lb white raisins 1/2 lb candied pineapple 1/4 lb almonds 1/2 lb red & green cherries 1/1. lb Citron peel 1 lb gumdrops Next Day: Mix 1â€"1/4 cups white sugar with 1 cup of butter (or marg. good quality). Mix in well, one at a time, 5 eggs. Blend in 1/2 cup of milk with 2 cups flour that has been sifted with 1/2 tsp salt and 2 tsp baking powder. Add the fruit and mix well. Bake in tube pan (10") greased and floured, for 2 hours or so at 300 degrees. Put a can of water in oven for moisture . Cool inverted and wrap well to store.
