how to make eggless christmas cake at homeIt’s again an eggless cake for this christmas it’s a trademark festive treat every-time. Even though it’s an eggless christmas cake it’s not an alcohol free cake which is a must if you want an authentic christmas cake. If you don’t want to use alcohol you can always use orange juice which equalizes and brings the same outcome.Its a very first attempt for me to use alcohol in cooking and was very curious about the outcome as well. It turned out to be perfect and was totally satisfied. I was not so very confident in the how to make eggless christmas cake at homebeginning but after the successful baking it all ended only in happy eating. Instead of demarara if you don’t have you can use normal white sugar. In so many recipes out there I noticed caramelising the sugar diluting it and adding it in the batter for colour. But,personally I felt adding cocoa powder as best for colour and flavour. Always grate the nutmeg then and there otherwise the flavour and freshness goes if we add the stored ones. So,this christmas cake can be done at home easily and now lets see how to make christmas cake recipe at home.
