Plum Cake is a rich dense cake packed with dry fruits and nuts flavoured with spices usually made during Christmas.

Plum Cake is made in different parts of the world with slight variations. In India, plum cake is found everywhere during Christmas season, although it is also available commonly throughout the year. Traditionally the dry fruits are soaked in rum for a month before making the cake. To make cake without alcohol cook the fruits in apple juice (or orange juice) for 5-10 minutes. This cake is a alcohol free version.
