English Iced Slab Christmas Cake is a delightful melange of plump, juicy raisins, currants, and cherries, and finely chopped nuts. These ingredients are carefully mixed into a lightly spiced, rich cake batter and slow-baked to perfection.
The cake is then topped with a layer of delicious marzipan, lending a slightly sweet, nutty flavor that complements the richness of the cake. To finish, the cake is covered with a smooth layer of royal icing, creating a crisp, sweet outer shell that breaks delightfully with each bite.
