• Use any brand packed juice of apple, orange or grapes flavour. You can also use fresh orange juice as well. If you are ok with alcohol go soak in rum instead of this juice.
• You can soak the dry fruit for minimum 6hrs to maximum 2days.
• The purpose of black caramel is to give dark color as well as a mild bitter taste in the cake.
