Iced Dundee Cake

A friend asked me to make her Mummy a birthday cake and requested a 'fruit cake with white plasticity icing like Christmas cake has'..... I interpreted this into a large Dundee fruit cake, which has an amazing amount of fruit in it, my mixing bowl was full, covered with rolled regal icing.

I thought it would be nice to put a few decorations on top so I made some roses from red regal icing; its' the first time I've made them and I think I quite like decorating cakes now!

Maimie just sent this photo of the cake when it was cut...
