Preparation time: 25 Minutes
\nCooking time: 45 Minutes<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
500g Silver Spoon fondant icing
\n200g Billington’s dark muscovado sugar
\n175g butter
\n750g mixed dried fruit
\n2 teaspoons fresh ginger
\nZest and juice of 1 orange
\n85g pecan nuts<\/p>\n
3 large eggs
\n85g Almonds
\n200g Allinson Nature Friendly plain white flour
\n\u00bd teaspoon baking powder
\n1 teaspoon ground mixed spice
\n1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tip the sugar, chopped butter, dried fruit, grated ginger and orange zest into a large pan.<\/p>\n
Pour over the juice and turn the heat on and slowly bring to the boil, stirring frequently to melt the butter.<\/p>\n
Reduce the heat and bubble gently for 10 minutes \u2013 stir regularly. Set aside to cool while you carry on with next steps.<\/p>\n
Stir in chopped nuts, beaten eggs and ground almonds into the fruit.<\/p>\n
Sift in the flour, baking powder and spices and stir everything together, gently but thoroughly.<\/p>\n
Heat oven to 150\u00b0C, fan 130\u00b0C, gas 2. Scoop the cake mix into 24 fairy cake cases then level tops with a spoon dipped in hot water. Bake for 35-45 minutes until golden and just firm to touch. A skewer inserted should come out clean. Cool on a wire rack.<\/p>\n
Make up the fondant icing to a spreading consistency, then swirl on top of each cupcake, then leave to set.<\/p>\n
Cook’s tip: These little cakes will keep in a tin for 3 weeks.<\/p>\n
