The Eggless Fruit Cake comes under my list of “must have” food during birthdays, Christmas and other festival celebrations. This is my own recipe and it’s a family favorite. Today I have prepared this eggless fruit cake to have it during my travel as it has a shelf life of around 2-3 days in air tight container.
