Sift together the next four dry ingredients. Stir with widen spoon into batter. Fold the fruit into the thick cake batter and spoon into the loaf pan. Batter will be quite thick.
• 3. Sprinkle the streusel topping onto the top of cake batter. Gently press down on the streusel to ensure sticking to cake around edges of the pan. Bake for 1 hour or until toothpick tests done. Cool for 10 minutes on a rack in the pan. Gently remove loaf from the pan USING CAUTION AS THE BERRY JUICES ARE VERY HOT! I use heatproof silicon mitts. Cool loaf for one hour, then glaze and allow to dry.
