Hi ash hope all is well do you have a detail recipe for this cake?

I will try this cake. It looks amazing! Im a practicing Muslim so cannot use Alcohol. I will use sparkling grape juice instead. How many days should I soak the cake?

Looked amazing, I will give it a try. Thank you Ash, Happy Holidays !

One question I have for you.Before you started to add the eggs does the sugar have to melt before you do that.?

Yum 😋

Hi Greetings, What kind of wine is best to soak the fruits and to make the carmel? Its great watching you make this cake, brought back many memories during the holidays. God Bless

Hello hun, what butter do you recommend instead of the one you mentioned.. we don't have that brand in Canada. Also, the tin pans - do you butter and flour to grease or just butter?

How much fruit & flour to 1 lb cake? Cooking with ash

How much flour,baking powderand egg

Love this but where is the measurement cant see them in the description box pls look yummy good job

Yum yum ! Can you use banko wine for the caramel ? I hv a couple of bottles and trying to find use for it

You did not say anything about the baking powder and how much is needed.

Wonderful! Great black cake recepie! Thanks for sharing! Did you grease the foil pan.

Hi Ash salaam, can you please do a black cake without Alcohol, because I don't use any Alcohol at all so I can try making black cake since it is one of my favorite cakes

Ok this is my first attempt at making Guyanese Black Cake...😦 My husband is Guyanese i am French Canadian of course I have to follow his mother's recipe so were going to be banging heads in the kitchen because its Mom's way or no way😏 My question is the carmel or black sugar ( brown sugar and wine mixture ) is it a must that we do this?? His mother is 89 yrs old maybe she forgot to add this in her chicken scratch written recipe 🤔 lol I am so confused about this recipe 😕 We did our fruit mixture with the rum, wine port and brandy a month ago and we have 2 jars with 6 cups of it in each jar so were going to put one jar away for next Christmas We have a small oven that hold and will bake 2 cake pans I also have a Convection Oven thinking I will put a 9x12 glass baking dish so how long would I bake that in the Convection Oven? Needing to Thank you for your videos...I am going with your recipe and I am going to follow it for the 9x12 cake...and he will follow his Mothers recipe for the 2 cake pans... Wish me luck😉

Wow well explained A2Z spoken to n understanding recipe black fruit cake to a supper results, im pleased n happy watching ur post from TANGA Tanzania Shalom.

U know I used this in Jamaica as well when we do not have any browing

What brand of liquor did you use?

Hey love what brand of wine should I get? And what brand of rum should I use? My cake has icing on top and not enough liquor in it. What should I do? How can I get it to soak if I already iced my cake?

My weakness

Great video for the black cake but I never heard of five spice in black cake i know about all spice don't know if it's a mistake you made or that's one of your ingredients

1lb is equivalent to 2.25 cups.... And you have 3 2/3 cups? I'm afraid to make a mistake.... Can you clarify please...?

Looks great, how long can you keep the Carmel for ?

Hi is it ok if the brown sugar does not completely dissolve when it’s creaming with the butter?

Hi Ash, Please post the recipe. Thanks,

The milk 🥛 to drink with your cake pure haven 💖 💕

Can you use sorrel drink instead of wine?

Love verythink about your

Any kind of wine you use ?

drive.google.com/file/d/1EJ29s1OI3yqdYcimkuqYpEcD9bYPV5BD/view?usp=drivesdk. Looking forward to sampling these. Thank God for the mixer, always hated creaming the butter/sugar!

Hi Asha if you are baking a pound of black cake ,how much sugar, flour and butter you normally use its my first time baking 🙈🙈

what kind of wine?

Glass bakes faster plus the dish is large

Hi mam.. What is five spice..and what kind of fruits you soaked

How u teaching but, u not telling them the measurements for ingredients?

Using this one, except for the nuts, because of allergies. And you’re right, everyone has their own take.

Land o lake butter!!

I wanted to see how to make the black cake , not how to burn the sugar it was a little too much talking,. It was a turn off for me

TMI

Too much talking

No
