Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy then break the egg yolks into the mixture and beat into the mix before adding the orange zest and cinnamon. Mix in the almonds and rice flour with the flour and mix the fruit together in a separate bowl. Add the flour mix to the butter mix, alternating with a generous handful of fruit. Beat to combine after each addition and continue alternating between the flour and the fruit until both mixtures are incorporated into the batter.
Add he egg-whites to a bowl and beat until they are stand up in stiff peaks then carefully fold the eggwhites into the cake batter. Scrape the cake mix into a well-greased cake tin then place in an oven pre-heated to 170°C (325°F/Gas Mark 3) and bake for half an hour. Reduce the temperature to 160°C (320°F/Gas Mark 3) and bake for a further 2 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake emerges cleanly. Allow to cool in the tin before turning it out to cool completely on a wire rack.
