If you are planning your cake on Wednesday, prepare the fruit mixture on monday. However i soaked my fruits 20 days earlier.

Take the raisins, tutti frutti,chopped cashewnuts, cranberries,chopped almonds, cherries in a bowl, add the orange juice, orange zest,jaggery syrup, mix everything in a bowl and arrange in fridge for 20 days.

Sieve the Wheat flour with cinnamon powder,clove powder,nutmeg powder with baking powder

Preheat the oven to 325F.

Grease well the baking pan with oil and sprinkle some flour to coat the pan well, keep aside.

Beat together the olive oil and sugar in a bowl until they turns creamy, add one egg at a time and blend well.

Add the vanilla extract and beat well, gradually add the flour little by little and blend well.

Finally add the fruit and nut mixture to the mixing bowl and gently mix it with a spoon. Pour this cake batter to the greased baking pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or a skewer inserted comes out clean.
