And pecans (and walnuts) are so expensive in the US also. But they are so good :).Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11717898669803221775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-76562311181198698612014-12-10T00:06:54.591+08:002014-12-10T00:06:54.591+08:00I'm with you, more rum is better!I'm with you, more rum is better!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10440952569147409819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-79912752689099976932014-12-09T12:47:31.577+08:002014-12-09T12:47:31.577+08:00Hi Faithy - Your cake looks lovely. did you wrap ...Hi Faithy - Your cake looks lovely. did you wrap your pan with newspaper?

I like the selection of dried fruits you used. I'll make a note to try that combination.

I should do that next time - I also prink my fingers when I use the pin that comes with my cake strips - totally useless.<br /><br />Did the mango work.. I had a tough time finding dry pears, even the fruit that I found was an undertaking.. since we live in Florida.. al the dry fruit is tropical fruit, pineapple, mango, oranges, etc....
