Homemaking Notes Fruit Cake Time October is an excellent time to prepare the fruit cakes that your family and friends will en joy during the Christmas holi day season. A well "ripened" fruit cake is far superior in flavor to those made in the last minute rush just before Christ mas Day. A good fruit cake takes sev eral hours to make so don't try to do all your prcparaton and baking in one day. The next time you go to the store buy the fruits and nutmeats you will need and check your supply of staples. When you have time, cut up the fruits and nut meats and store them in screw top jars. The day before baking, prepare the pans and measure the ingredients. Your task will be simple on the big clay when you put your cakes together, bake and cool them. The day after baking, wrap and store the cakes. A variety of containers can be used for fruit cakes. Try tube or loaf pans, coffee cans, ring molds, casseroles or freez ing containers. Grease the pan well and then line smoothly with heavy paper, grease and flour well. Let the paper extend up along the sides to protect cake edges from over-baking. Small cakes can be baked in muffin cups lined with paper. Mixing is easy once the fruit is cut and ingredients assembl ed. Measure prepared fruit and nutmeats into a flat pan; sift dry ingredients over top, then toss lightly to coat well. Add to creamed shortning, sugar and egg mixture alternately with li quid. Spoon batter into pans push gently into corners to le vel. For a deliciouslv moist fruit cake place a shallow pan of j water on the lowest rack of the oven and let steam work its magic while the cake bakes. Baking time will vary for the ! fruit cake, depending on size, but the temperature is the same ! for all. a slow oven of 300 de grees Fahrenheit. Fruit cake must be completely cooled before wrapping and storing. Remove the baked cake, from the pan, place on a rack and pull paper down from the sides. Cool, then replace paper and wrap in pliofilm o cello phane. Overwrap with alumin um foil, molding it to the cake. Wrap cupcakes in groups. Store fruit cakes in tightly covered containers in a cool place. WTeIl wrapped fruit cakes may be kept in the freezer for a period of one year. When ready to use, remove the cake from the freezer and let it defrost, still wrapped. Try this rich Chololate Fruit Cake as a special treat for your familv this coming holiday sea son.
