🧈 Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Here’s your must-have BSM shopping list:
● All-Purpose Flour – the base that holds your flavor magic together.
● Brown Sugar or Demerara Sugar – gives that deep caramel tone and extra moisture.
● Butter (unsalted, room temperature) – because every good cake begins with butter.
● Dried Fruits Mix – cherries, raisins, tutti frutti, apricots… the heart of every plum cake.
● Chopped Nuts – almonds, cashews, walnuts for that festive crunch.
● Spice Blend – cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove powder — the cozy trio you can smell
before the cake’s even done.
● Caramel Syrup or Honey – adds that rich brown tint and soft crumb.
● Vanilla Essence – for that perfect aroma that ties it all together.
BSM shall be your one-stop shop for all your ingredient needs.
Got them all? Perfect. Now the fun begins.
🍒 Step 2: Soak and Prep
This is the step that separates a good plum cake from a great one.
In a bowl, soak your dried fruits in orange juice or rum essence (depending on how festive
you’re feeling).
Let it sit — even a couple of hours can make a difference.
The fruits absorb flavor and soften beautifully, giving your cake that rich, fruity bite.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 170°C and grease your baking tin. The excitement’s about to
rise — literally.
🥣 Step 3: Mix, Fold, and Bake
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy.
Add vanilla essence and a spoon of caramel syrup for that deep flavor.
Now gently fold in your flour and spice mix, alternating with a splash of milk.
Finally, add your soaked fruits and nuts — fold them in softly, don’t overmix.
Pour the batter into your tin, tap it gently to release air bubbles, and bake for 35–40 minutes
until a skewer comes out clean.
The smell filling your kitchen? Pure joy.
🌰 Step 4: Cool, Slice, and Enjoy
Let the cake rest — we know it’s hard, but trust us, patience pays off.
Once cooled, slice it thick and serve with a cup of coffee, or wrap it up as a homemade gift that
says “made with love.”
The texture? Buttery and moist.
The taste? A perfect blend of fruit, spice, and nostalgia.
