    1. Preparation : To make the brandy starter: Mix all the ingredients for the starter in a glass jar and cover with a cloth. Keep at room temperature. With a WOODEN spoon, stir 3-4 times the first day, and once a day thereafter for 2 weeks. Drain and use the brandy to start the fruit cake mix. Next, make the 30 day brandied fruitcake MIX, as directed above. BRANDIED FRUITCAKE: Mix the first 4 ingredients well, then add the 2 remaining ingredients, mixing in by hand. Pour into a well greased and floured bundt pan and bake at 325F for 40-50 minutes in a preheated oven. Brandied fruit can be put in a glass jar with a lid(not sealed) be sure fruit is just covered with brandy to keep moist and placed in ice box. Starter brandy can also be kept the same way. Will keep in ice box for several months. (this stuff lasts forever) After cake cools, wrap in plastic wrap. The longer this cake sits the better it will be. NOTE: Be sure to stir the fruitcake mix daily with a WOODEN spoon.
