But we do have the fig cake and in our family, instead of icing, it comes with a hard (stiff) sauce made of powdered sugar, butter and rum. Believe me, the figgy pudding is mainly the vehicle for the hard sauce!Mark D.

It is a rich fruit cake and then it is dressed with marzipan and covered with icing.
