Basically, I worked around the eggless cake recipe with curd that is a popular recipe from my blog and came upon today’s eggless fruit cake recipe. Instead of powdered sugar, I used dark brown sugar which gave the fruit cake a dark golden shade. A moist and rum soaked fruit laden eggless cake that everyone is sure enjoy over the holiday season.
