What is National Brandied Fruit Day?

We celebrate National Brandied Fruit Day on October 20th each year on October 20th.

#brandiedfruitday

Brandied fruit first became popular around the Victorian period. People discovered brandy added to fruit quickly and safely preserved it during this period. Incidentally, the process also preserved the flavor of freshly picked fruit crops while still creating a delectable dessert for adults.

Brandied fruit is made by soaking sweet fresh fruit in brandy, sugar, and spices. The fruit will sit for nearly 30 days after the initial preparations. Then it is poised to be the best desserts, pies, and cakes. Interestingly, brandied fruit is used as a starter for Friendship Cake. Friendship Cake is similar to the idea of a starter for sourdough bread, but it takes time to prepare. However, once you've finished the process, you're sure to enjoy one of the most delectable treats ever!
