Preheat the oven to 300 F. Grease an 8-inch layer cake pan and line with a
double layer of greased wax paper Sift the flour with the mixed spice into
a mixing bowl. Rub the margarine into the flour with your fingertips until
the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs, then stir in the sugar, dried
fruit, mixed peel, cherries, orange rind, ground and blanched almonds. Warm
half the soy milk or water in a small saucepan and add the vinegar.
Dissolve the baking soda in the rest of the soy milk or water, then combine
the two mixtures. Stir this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring well
so that everything is combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan.

the cake comes out clean. Leave the cake in the pan to cool, then remove
and strip off the wax paper. Transfer to a wire rack and allow the cake to
cool completely.
