Often there a tiny pieces of red or green cherries mixed in as well. You could likely substitute 2 cups of other candied fruit, but I would chop it up.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-78959400744309378902006-11-19T22:49:00.000-05:002006-11-19T22:49:00.000-05:00I'd like to try your cake recipe but I'm not sure ...I'd like to try your cake recipe but I'm not sure what you mean by "mixed peel".

Where do they go? <br />On the coast of Labrador everyone went visiting to get 12 pieces so they would have 12 months of good luck. And it created freedom and reason for everyone to visit even more than they usually would. And women prepared for it months in advance. I love fruit cake.Kay Wottonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03014140544871209009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-35847111182944308712006-11-09T17:15:00.000-05:002006-11-09T17:15:00.000-05:00The cake bakes for a long time at a low temperatur...The cake bakes for a long time at a low temperature. The water keeps the top of the cake from drying out. You could put a pan of water on the same rack as the fruitcake. Baked custards should also have extra oven humidity.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31176502.post-9432633917790743682006-11-09T12:38:00.000-05:002006-11-09T12:38:00.000-05:00Why the pan of water?
