By Blondie Bill 11 Nov 2012 13:12	Nut Free Christmas Cake I have never put nuts in my cake, simply because some people don't like them. As there are so few I have never made up the difference with other ingredients and it has never been a problem. Of course you can if you like. Bill... Reply Quote

By sam from worthing 12 Nov 2012 15:22	Nut free Christmas cake LOL, poor Bill.... I can only echo Bill's sentiments - I always leave them out too, for exactly the same reason as Bill, and i make the missing weight up with wahtever dried fruit, i tend to use dried apricots, apples and or pineapples. all of which you can get from the supermarket int he same aisle as the raisins and sultanas etc. Or add up all the dried fruit weight and buy a really nice luxury mixed dried fruit pack.
