Method
Mix the Butter Cake Mix with the flour.
Prepare a starter by mixing the eggs, milk, sugar and yeast and warming it to 50°C.
Add half of the flour and Butter Cake Mix blend and the dried fruit and mix for 2 minutes on low speed, then 3-5 minutes on high speed.
Leave to rest for about 5 minutes.
Add the melted, slightly cooled butter and a pinch of salt, then the remaining flour and Butter Cake Mix blend. Mix for about 5 minutes. The consistency of the dough should be pourable.
Soak the orange peel and raisins, then drain them very thoroughly.
Portion about 400 g of the mass into round moulds intended for panettone-style babka (12 cm diameter, 10 cm height).
Final proofing: about 30 minutes.
Bake for 30-35 minutes at 180°C (bottom) and 190°C (top).
Decorate the baked babkas with a fondant icing prepared with Fondant Ready and sprinkle with candied orange peel.
