Making your Christmas cake in September is perfect, as too fresh a cake crumbles when cut.
I don't like a too-perfect cake. You want people to know it came from your kitchen and not the cake case in the bakery aisle.

But of course you can have your cake and eat it, too - if you decide to to bake a second cake. And you may well find that baking two cakes does not take twice the work of baking one.
I like quinoa. I like gingerbread. I feel they should be kept separate. I'm not in favor of this thing of making kind of raw, vegan chocolate cake and saying it's as good as chocolate cake. I mean, just eat cake and be done with it. And then have a separate meal of quinoa.
I made a chocolate cake with white chocolate. Then I took it to a potluck. I stood in line for some cake. They said, "Do you want white cake or chocolate cake?" I said, "yes."
What did I do?" he said. "Cake! It's cake! Delicious cake!
