Critical Success Points

  • Soak dried fruits for a minimum of 24 hours in orange juice.
  • Cool the caramelised sugar‑jaggery mixture before adding water to avoid splattering.
  • Adjust batter moisture with the reserved orange juice to achieve a dropping consistency.
  • Check cake doneness with a toothpick; over‑baking dries the cake.

Safety Warnings

  • Caramel and black‑jack mixture are extremely hot; handle with oven mitts.
  • Adding water to hot caramel can cause vigorous bubbling – add slowly after cooling.
  • Do not add eggs to a hot wet mixture; they will scramble.
