Sarova Stanley’s Culinary Extravaganza, A Stirring Cake Mixing Affair

On the evening of Friday, November 3rd, 2023, Sarova Stanley added a touch of tradition and festive spirit to the air as they hosted a delightful Cake Mixing Ceremony. A journey into the historical roots of this age-old practice reveals its origins in the 17th century during the harvest season.

As the abundance of fruits and nuts marked the season, communities began preparing for the creation of the traditional plum cake. The ceremony unfolded with the meticulous mixing of an array of dry fruits, including apricots, figs, cashew nuts, raisins, and black currants, with a blend of wine, rum, brandy, and whiskey.

The vibrant tableau included the laying out of these succulent fruits, followed by the aromatic sprinkling of spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. The pièce de résistance was the pouring of alcohol onto the mixing table, creating an intoxicating symphony of flavors and scents. As hands came together to blend this rich concoction, the atmosphere became infused with warmth, color, and an irresistible aroma.

Amidst the flowing drinks and high spirits, the soaked mix found its way into jars, patiently waiting for the next few weeks. During this time, the fruits would absorb the alcohol, transforming into moist, juicy dried cakes—a delightful anticipation of the festive season ahead.

Sarova Stanley’s cake mixing ceremony not only revived a centuries-old tradition but also brought people together in a joyous celebration of flavors, aromas, and the spirit of togetherness. It was an evening that captured the essence of festive anticipation and the rich history behind this culinary ritual.
