Bourbon and coffee crystals add depth of flavor to this super moist, adults-only Christmas cake recipe. Bake the cake up to two days in advance, so all that's left is to make and drizzle the sauce over the top the day it's served.

This beautiful Christmas cake design is inspired by the bark of a silver birch tree and uses a clever - but easy - technique to create the bark effect. What I love about the cake design is how beautifully it brings nature into Christmas.
