Hi there my Creole cake mix has turned out very very sticky and tough to separate. Will it still bake okay do you think? Thanks so much for your help.

Savour the taste of Italian origin and tradition
Delia Online with San Daniele & Grana Padano Promotion
When it comes to origin and tradition, the Italians know the value of their culinary heritage with each region celebrating the produce its rightly famous for. But how do you know you're buying the real deal?
The key is to look for the distinctive red and yellow PDO mark - Protected Designation of Origin. It’s your guarantee of authentic regional flavour, perfected over centuries and made to exacting traditional standards.
Hello,
The fruit mixture shouldn’t be wet but it sounds like it could have been slightly over heated. Place the mixture in a bowl and with clean hands rub your fingers through the mixture. If it feels moist and the fruits can be separated it will be fine when you gradually fold them into the cake mix. If the fruits a very stuck together, add 1 tablespoon of brandy and then rub it through with your fingers to dampen the mixture before folding it into the cake mix.
Kind regards
