She won the award with a traditional Christmas cake made with her late mother’s recipe. Nuala is a fourth-generation baker at Hickey’s Bakery, Clonmel. She has won numerous one-star Great Taste accolades, most recently for her seeded soda bread, sourdough, and rhubarb and orange cake. Nuala made her winning Christmas cake in February, and Great Taste judges tried it in May. Winning the two stars is fabulous, she says. “We know we do a good Christmas cake, we’ve been using the same recipe for nearly 30 years. But to have this award behind it now is massive.” Nuala’s mother, Margaret, passed away in August. Her recipe was a traditional one, with dried fruit, lemon juice, rinds of oranges, and many other ingredients (“there are lots of ingredients in a good cake” says Nuala), as well as whiskey. “We add whiskey every few weeks to keep the cake soft.” Hickey’s bakery is famous for its barm brack, with Great British Bake Off queen Mary Berry even arriving this Halloween to bake barm brack at the original bakehouse.
