Nigellas Winter Wonderland Cake, Ocado
Perhaps, like me, you find yourself at Christmas surrounded by those who abominate dried fruit in all its seasonal manifestations. If so, this may well be the cake you need in your life. It s snowy marshmallow icing looks fabulously festive, even when you dont get your old Christmas cake decorations out to adorn it, as I have here The cake it covers (and fills) is deeply, darkly, lusciously chocolatey, intense enough to counter the sweet icing and tartly offset by a layer of raspberries in the middle. True, these are not seasonal, but I dont expect you to use fresh: give them time enough to thaw, and frozen raspberries do the job perfectly. Tradition is a glorious thing, especially at this time of year, but Im all for embracing Christmas rituals of our own.
