Fruit Mixing

As the festive season draws near, the air at Studio M fills with the scent of spices, candied fruit, and cheer — it’s time for our annual Fruit Mixing Ceremony!

A Tradition Rooted in Celebration

The story of the Christmas cake dates back to 17th-century England, when rich plum puddings were prepared to mark the end of the Advent fast. Over time, these evolved into the fruit-laden Christmas cakes we know and love today — dense with soaked fruits, spices, and warmth. Every bite tells a story of tradition, family, and festive indulgence.

The Significance of Fruit Mixing

Fruit mixing marks the beginning of the Christmas baking season. It’s a joyful ritual where dry fruits, nuts, and peels are blended with aromatic spices and generous splashes of spirits or wine — then left to mature and soak in all that festive goodness. The longer the mix rests, the richer the flavor — just like how good things in life deepen with time.

At Studio M, this ceremony is more than just preparation — it’s our way of ushering in the spirit of togetherness. It’s laughter shared over sticky spoons, the sparkle of wine poured into jars, and the joyful anticipation of cakes that will soon fill our ovens (and hearts) with warmth.

A Toast to Christmas Traditions

From lighting candles to caroling, gifting, and baking, every Christmas ritual reminds us to slow down and celebrate the beauty of giving. Our fruit mixing day carries that same essence — a sweet start to a season filled with gratitude, love, and community.

So come join us as we stir, laugh, and soak — and raise a toast to the season of joy!
