Authentic, made from scratch Jerk Seasoning is what I use to marinate the chicken in before it gets slow smoked over the grill. There is no other way to do it. And you can have it for Christmas Dinner! But you will have to secure your seat at the table as last call for orders end November 30!

Jamaican Fruit Cake ... with a twist!!!

Hey guys! Welcome to my first ever Blog Post where I’ll be teaching you how I make my Jamaican Fruit Cake, with a twist, of course!

An authentic Jamaican Christmas celebration begins with a traditional Jamaican Fruit Cake also known as Christmas Cake or Black Cake. This dark and spongy cake is a labor of love that is rich in flavors from rum soaked fruits. It is very popular during the Christmas period and is often times served with sorrel.

This batch is quite a big one but it can easily be modified to make a smaller batch as there is a 1:1 ratio of flour, sugar, egg and butter with 1.5 pounds of fruits. I used 5 pound mixes, however, I removed half a pound of flour and half a tbsp of baking powder just to make my cake extra fruit-y. Now this step is totally optional!

Due to the large quantity of eggs used in this recipe, I added lime juice to the eggs to cut the taste of the eggs from the cake. The lime juice also allows the egg to get firm causing the final product to hold together better. I also added the zest of the limes to the batter but it could be added to the fruits mixture.  

Again, due to the large quantity of eggs, I crack two to three at a time and then add them to mixer, to remove any germ (eyes) and also to reduce the risk of contaminating all the eggs if one is spoilt.

I always sift flour to get it lighter and remove any lumps that may be present. For the fruits, I use the chopping speed on my blender. Try not to puree as this makes the final product too soft. For added flavor, I add sweet orange marmalade and strawberry preserve to my fruit mixture. Use your own judgement and remember this step is optional.

Sticking with the tradition, I use my wooden spoon when combining dry and wet ingredients, adding dry ingredients in small batches to prevent lumps. Cut and fold the flour to combine the mixture without overmixing the batter. This method also prevents flour lumps from forming as well as produces a smooth batter.

Cut and fold fruits mixture, molasses and brown sugar to avoid overmixing while combining. This also ensure a good, even color. 

When baking, add a container with water in the oven to steam the cake therefor preventing the cake from drying out. The recipe is down below and you can watch the full video here!

6✅ Combine creamed butter and sugar with egg mixture in a large mixing bowl. Add lime zest and mix.

7✅ Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients a little at a time until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Be sure to cut the center then fold it over while scraping the bottom and the sides of the bowl.
