Ms. Connie, this is off-topic-do you know of any caterer in calamba/pansol laguna area? I've been scouting for one for several weeks, unfortunately, the ones I've tried calling were not ok. I'll really appreciate it if you could recommend one. Thanks a lot! Hi,

I've often thought of writing a cookbook called "The Art of Remedial Cooking" with all the sorts of techniques that cooks resort to to rescue the dish. Well done on the Accidental Christmas Cake Connie and a very Merry Christmas to you and your family. Brilliant save!

Once the cake has cooled coming from the oven, wrap the cake(s) with a clean cotton cloth. Place the wrapped cake in a plastic container with a tight fitting lid (Tupperware works good). Before closing the container, pour cheapest brandy over the cloths to soak thoroughly. Close the container. Leave for at least a week. Add more brandy, if desired. We have kept cakes for more than a year with this method. Check every few months and add more brandy if dry. No need to poke holes in the cake at all. Tastes great!
