Cream the butter and sugar together using a wooden spoon until smooth. Beat the eggs and fold in half, along with half the amount of flour. Add mincemeat, spices, fruit and brandy.
Then fold in the rest of the egg and remaining flour. Cook in the centre of a pre-heated oven at 150°C for 1 hour.
Then turn the temperature down to about 110°C and cook for a further 3 hours or until the centre is dry. Warm the Jam until spreadable, leave to cool and then apply to the top of the cake. Roll out white Marzipan and cover the cake, cut off excess with a knife. Roll red marzipan into balls in the palm of your hand, Use a cutter for the green marzipan to make leaves.
