Jamaican Fruit Cake

Sift flour and baking powder. Add fruits and nuts, and then lime rind. Cream butter and sugar, then add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. By hand, add 1/3 of the flour mixture, then add orange juice, vanilla, and rum. Add remaining flour mixture and stir well; don't overmix. Pour into greased and lined baking tin and decorate with whole almonds. Bake at 350F for about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Don't open oven door before cake has baked for 1 hour.

Jean's Note: For Delores Cook, who requested a recipe for Jamaican Fruit Cake. This is UNTESTED. I did, however, just get a little Jamaican cookbook, where I saw this recipe.... In spite of the name, it looks like a fruit cake to me!
