Christmas Cake anyone??!!

Its a funny thing life isn't it?  My first ever sponsored post and its something I have never ever tried in my life.  Its not that I live under a rock but if you know me, you would no that I have very simple food tastes.  The husband is slowly working on me and I am trying new things, although the old saying "Don't tell them whats in it and they'll eat it by the box full" definitely applies.
I was very pleased when the nice people at 'Bakers Delight' contacted me asking me to sample and then write about a couple of their products.  I freaken love all their rolls, they stay fresh for longer.  My kids demand their Cheese and Bacon creation every time we pass and I have been known to devour their Garlic Bread Stick on plenty of occasions BUT when I read on and saw it was a Christmas Cake or Nana Cake in my brain my stomach dropped.  Don't get me wrong, I've had plenty of offers of trying Xmas Cake during my years on this planet but I have declined EVERY time as I just think of Old ladies and Tea Towels, and then head straight for the Jelly and fruit salad instead.  Only last year I tried my first slice of Pavlova! No Jokes! it was yummy but the texture was very strange.   So how on earth did I find myself replying to the kind email with an enthusiastic "Sure I'd love to!" but reply I did, so figured this was the universes way of making me get out of my box and give it a go.  Maybe at this point Bakers Delight are regretting their decision.  I'm very sure that if I end up not being a fan it will have nothing to do with the cake and more to do with my cave man appetite.  I also figured that my kids shouldn't wait until they are in their 30's to try some festive dessert so have roped them in to taste test also.  I have decided to video the whole thing for posperity and for honesty....gulp!
