Take a bowl and add milk, butter, caramel solution and sugar. Mix well.
Add soaked fruits (without draining any juice) and mix well.
Put a sieve over the bowl and add flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, salt, cinnamon powder, ginger powder, nutmeg powder, star anise powder and cloves powder.
Sieve all these ingredients into the bowl.
Mix them well using a cut & fold method.
Transfer the batter into 9 inches cake tin lined with greased butter paper or parchment paper.
Level the batter using a spatula.
Top the cake with mixed fruits and nuts.
Bake in a preheated oven @160°C/320°F for 60 to 70 minutes in the middle rack of oven with both the rods on.
Take the cake out and insert a toothpick in it. If cake comes out clean, this is a sign that cake is properly baked. But if toothpick has some sticky batter, means cake is under baked so need little more baking.
Let cake cool down completely on a cooling rack.
Invert, cut into slices and enjoy.
