Simnel Cake

Originally, this cake was made for Mothering Sunday, but it has for a long, long time been an essential Easter confection, the marzipan balls on top representing the apostles: eleven in total as, for understandable reasons, Judas is persona non grata. I make this a very light fruit cake, totally different in taste and texture from the damp, dark offerings of Christmas.

Simnel Cake and Mothering Sunday

Mini Simnel Cakes Recipe | How to Make Mini Simnel Cakes

Packed with all the usual simnel cake ingredients like fruit and warming spices, the history of this cake makes it traditionally eaten in spring time usually at Easter. Unlike a traditional round Simnel cake, this traybake version is rectangular in shape making it ideal to cut into bite sized pieces and shared with friends. We’ve used mini eggs to decorate ours, but you can opt for traditional marzipan balls if you like. This cake goes perfectly with a cup of tea.
