Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Grease very well and flour one 2-cup mold and three 5x31/4x2-inch loaf pans. Tap out any excess flour.
  2. Toss the raisins and the currants with 1/4 cup of the flour. Sift the remaining 2 cups of flour with the cinnamon, mace or nutmeg, baking powder and salt onto wax paper.
  3. Beat the butter or margarine and sugar until light and fluffy in a large bowl with an electric mixer at high speed. Add the eggs one at a time, beating just until well blended. Beat in the grated lemon and orange rinds. Add the flour, 1/3 at a time, beating just until smooth. Fold in the floured raisins and currents.
  4. Spoon the batter into the prepared pans, filling 2/3 full. arrange the whole almonds in a decorative pattern on top of the loaves.
  5. Bake in a preheated slow oven 325 F for 45 minutes for the loaf pans, or 1 hour, 15 minutes for the 2 cup mold, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Cool in the pans on the wire racks for 10 minutes. Loosen around edges with a long thin-bladed knife,then invert onto racks and cool completely. Wrap each cake tightly in heavy-duty aluminum foil. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 month, or label, date and freeze.
  6. Brush cakes with Crystal Glaze #230997 before giving. Decorate with additional almonds and angelica strips if you wish.
  7. Note: You can bake this batter in one 8-9-inch round or a square pan too. Grease very well. Line with brown paper. Bake in a preheated oven 350 F until the cake shrinks from the sides of the pan. Let cool for 15 minutes. Turn out of the pan onto a cake rack. Peel off the paper completely.
