- Bake the cake in the preheated oven at 160 degree for 1 hour. If the tins are small, then it will be baked in one hour but if you are using 9 inch tin then after 1 hour reduce the oven temperature to 150 degree and bake it for another 30 minutes until done. Now take out the cake tin and leave it for 5 minutes then take it out from the tin and put it on the wire rack and let it cool down completely.
- Cut and store the fruit cake in an airtight container.
- Ready to serve and ENJOY!
