Banish the image of stodgy cakes loaded with sickly-sweet, fluorescent candied fruits and say “hello” to a true-blue English fruitcake. Loaded with real, dried fruits and fed with brandy, this is truly the stuff of Christmas past, but get ready for it become your Christmas present! You know, “Christmas present“? You get it.

This Befana Cake recipe is inspired by the Venetian traditions of Pinza Cake which contain cornmeal, dried fruit, fennel seeds and Grappa. In old-world traditions, Epiphany Eve is the date of Twelfth Night (the end of Yuletide) a celebration of the rebirth of the sun. It was marked by plenty of round, sweet-spicy bread-like cakes enriched with dried fruit (and a splash of spirits). These circular cakes were symbolic of the growing light and associated with an ancient star or sun goddesses whose bright light brought an end to the years darkest period and promised the coming of warmer longer days. The old 12th Night Feast became the Christian Feast of Epiphany, which was held – and still is – in honor of the night the Three Magi found the baby Jesus.

The ultimate bite of Christmas cheer!
