Grease and line the base and sides of the tin and grease the paper lining.

together.
Beat the butter until it is soft and creamy then add the caster sugar and
beat the mixture with the lemon rind until light and fluffy in both colour
and texture. Beat the eggs together then add them gradually to the creamed
mixture, beating well between each addition. Sift together the flour and
baking powder and lightly stir it into the creamed mixture with the sherry
and all the dried fruit.

out the centre, then cover the surface with the almonds

pushed into the mixture comes out clean.
Cool the cake in the tin for 15 minutes then turn it out onto a wire tray
to cool completely.

Sultanas = seedless white raisins)
This Magic Dundee cake is given at every party I have at home I have magic parties once a month and this is my reward and my thank you to all the people who arrive and accompany me and my family at these events.

Magic MENU IDEAS |
|
Children of all ages love magic and a party themed around magic is an excellent way to celebrate a birthday for a boy or a girl.
Once the decorations for the magic themed party are purchased it’s time to plan the menu for the day’s festivities. A great magic party menu starts with Presto Change-o Punch, Magic Potion Pizza, Magic Wand Pretzels and Rabbit in the Hat Cake.
To create the Presto Change-o Punch at the magic party, gather 1 cup Gummy worms, 1 quart Lemon-lime soda, 1 cup Boiling water, 2 pack Jell-O, lime; (small packages) 3 cup Cold water, 1½ quart Lemon-lime soda; chilled ½ cup superfine Sugar. Mix and serve this fizzy punch in a large glass punch bowl so the kids can magically pour the Presto Change-o Punch into their own glasses.
For the Magic Wand Pretzels, just instruct the guests when they arrive that these ordinary pretzel sticks are really magic wands since they disappear as the child snacks on them.
Making their own Magic Potion Pizza will have these little magicians in heaven. Stop by your local grocer and purchase inexpensive pizza bases. Upon arrival lead each guest into the kitchen to make their own creation. Have sauce, a variety of shredded cheeses and numerous toppings, including pineapple. While the pizzas are cooking in the oven entertain the kids with party games. Make sure to send the left over home with each child.
Add a little magic to your party with any of these tips. By just adding even one simple food item to the menu will help create
a complete Magic theme party feeling. |
