| 1 | I have a recipe for the above cake. It says to cover 1 kg mixed fruit with 2 cups of fresh orange juice. I never buy these, as a rule, hence for asking. . willman - 2020-02-09 16:33:00 |
| 2 | Yes, shouldn't be a problem I use bought orange juice ...no particular brand, but I do look for those with less sugar. Edited by samanya at 4:41 pm, Sun 9 Feb samanya - 2020-02-09 16:40:00 |

| 11 | Thanks for the suggestions, thinking of replacing, some of the orange juice, for some Brandy, by a 1/4 cup. :) willman - 2020-02-10 07:47:00 |
| 12 | There is no sugarless orange juice. Used one that is no longer available but about 9% sugar and was fine. amasser - 2020-02-10 09:50:00 |
| 13 | I add an egg just because I want to and spices. I had that many comments on what a lovely cake it was. I will say myself it was delish. jaybee6 - 2020-02-10 20:03:00 |
