### How to Make It
1. **Soak the fruits:** Start by soaking your dried fruits in warm water, fruit juice, or brandy overnight. This keeps them juicy and plump.
2. **Mix dry ingredients:** Combine flour, baking powder, spices, and nuts in a bowl.
3. **Cream butter and sugar:** Beat butter with brown sugar until fluffy, then add eggs one at a time.
4. **Combine everything:** Gradually add the dry mix, soaked fruits (with any remaining liquid), and zest to the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined.
5. **Bake low and slow:** Pour batter into a lined loaf or bundt pan and bake at a moderate temperature to keep the cake moist.
6. **Cool and enjoy:** Let the cake cool completely before slicing. For extra flavor, brush the top with more brandy or fruit juice.
