Well, I have to say the diet tea loaf was a success! I had two independent reviewers (well, the OH and Jess!) who both said the same thing......it would be great with custard!! I think that might defeat the object of it being a 'diet cake' but the consensus was it was a hit.
I think it helped soaking the fruit overnight for them to gain maximum plumpness so its worth going to the extra bother. The recipe itself couldn't be easier and there is no need for any fancy mixers etc, all very easy to do by hand....
