Re: chrimbo cake is the BEST! ranagrande Send a noteboard - 04/12/2011 11:48:56 AM
i've made three this year and all of them are marinading in brandy

edit 1: also why don't yanks ever talk about meat pies? all pies i've seen in american things are all sweet. savoury pies are awesome, how have americans not noticed this? a meat pie contains meat and a crap tonne of gravy, both things americans love.


WHHHHYYYYYYYYY no yankee meat pies?

We do have them, and we call them pot pies. They are usually individual servings, because Americans love meat and gravy so much that we don't want to share.

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:00:51 PM 625 Views
Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:02:42 PM 454 Views
No, generally we do not make cake for Christmas. *NM* Tom - 04/12/2011 04:41:05 PM 481 Views

We don't have a sheet of icing? Palatine - 04/12/2011 05:08:00 PM 995 Views
We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant. nossy - 04/12/2011 07:46:41 PM 1319 Views
That's just for Christmas cakes and wedding cakes, usually. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 07:58:55 PM 1124 Views

Plus with loads of brandy used to "feed" the cake over the month before you ice it. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 08:45:28 PM 1009 Views

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/12/2011 10:12:21 PM 501 Views
