Steps:
- Place oven rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 300°F. Grease large funnel pan and line bottom with parchment paper.
- In medium-sized bowl, dredge the cut gumdrops with 1/4 cup of the flour, making sure that the cut edges of each gumdrop are well floured. Set aside. In separate bowl, sift together the remaining flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In bowl of stand mixer, cream the butter. Gradually add the sugar, beating until well incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla along with the almond and lemon flavourings. Add the dry and wet ingredients in three parts (3 parts dry and 2 parts wet) starting and ending with the dry ingredients. After all ingredients have been added, beat batter on medium speed for 1 minute.
- Remove bowl from stand mixer and, by hand, gently fold in the floured gumdrops just until incorporated and no dry flour remains visible. Do not overmix.
- Transfer batter to prepared pan and, with knife, smooth batter out even. Bake for approximately 2¼ hours or until cake tester inserted near funnel center of pan comes out clean. Remove cake from oven and let cool in pan for 20-30 minutes then turn cake out onto wire rack to cool completely. Cake will slice better a day or two after baking.

EASY GUMDROP CAKE
In lieu of fruit cakes we like to give these to friends. Most of the preparation time is in chopping the gumdrops. If you can find miniatures, you'll be way ahead. We omit the black gumdrops.

GUMDROP CAKE
This one is a keeper. My mom used to make this for me every x-mas because I didn't like fruit cake. I asked her for the recipe but she couldn't find it so I came up with this one after a bit of experimentation, I think I nailed it because this one is probably better than the one she made. All the measurements are the way I make it but they can be changed to suit your taste. This one is really easy to make.

Steps:
- Using a pastry cutter or fork or whatever you''ve got combine the sugars and butter together until they are like crumbs. (You can use all white or all brown sugar if you like.).
- Combine the eggs and vanilla with the sugar mixture.
- Take about 1/4 cup of your flour and coat your gumdrops so they do not sink to the bottom of your cake. Use the remaining flour for the next step.
- Sift the remaining flour,salt,spices,baking soda and baking powder together.
- With a mixer or by hand add your flour mixture and milk to the egg and sugar mixture until well mixed. I let it mix for several minutes with the electric mixer.
- Add your gumdrops to the mixture and combine by hand as the gumdrops tend to get beat up with the electric mixer.
- Add mixture to 2 loaf pans or one bundt pan that has been greased and floured.
- Put in oven preheated to 300F for about 2 hrs.Test with toothpick to see if it is done.(wet toothpick not done, dry done)
- Note: Do not fill your pan more than 3/4 full as these cakes do rise.
- I have found that the gumdrops do not sink in the cake but they don't rise with the cake either. Try saving a few of the gumdrops and putting them on top of the cake and just pushing them in after you have put the batter in the pan.
- Experiment with the flavors. I found some fruit flavored gummies that are excellent in this recipe. I've also seen wine gummies that I plan to try in my next cake.The spices that I listed are what I like. You may not have the same taste so don't be afraid to add more or subtract some. I have made these with out some of the spices listed and they turned out great.
- If you find your cake is getting too dark before your cooking time is up you can cover the top with tinfoil or brown paper for the last 1/2 hour of cooking.
- These cakes freeze well and just seem to get better after sitting well wrapped in a cool pantry for a week or two.
- Enjoy.

GUMDROP CAKE
I don't use baking gums for this. Those things are horrid. If you wouldn't eat them right out of the bag, don't bake with them. Don't use any black ones. Ganong are the best-they don't make black ones. The easiest way to cut them is with scissors dipped in flour.
