Fruit Flan with Tiffin Liquor

Fruit cake with Tiffin liquor is a special creation using the liquor made of black tea called "Tiffin." Below the fruit is a layer of pudding that is combined with some Tiffin which adds a creamy note to the cake. Tiffin liquor itself has a note of bergamot, rose petal, allspice and fresh herbs, with flavours of dark fruit and black pepper. It has become a top-selling tea liqueur in Japan. We did not add a glaze on top because the pudding layer is just fine.
