Madeira wine is a unique wine in Madeira Island, which belongs to fortified wine. High-quality wines are used as aperitif or after-dinner wines, and low-quality wines are also used for cooking.

The grape variety that makes Madeira wine is sweet. Grape picking began in mid-August and lasted for about 6 weeks, with an annual output of 5.3 million bottles. After fermentation, high-alcohol liquor is added to stop the fermentation process and keep the liquor sweet. Then heat it to increase the alcohol content, and then add brandy. The alcohol content of Madeira wine is about 18% to 2 1%. Madeira cake is a common traditional food in old England.

This is a simple pound cake with lemon-flavored ingredients and baking. Madeira cake is like a rectangular piece of bread. In the19th century, after the cake was made, it was traditionally served with madeira wine, but now tea is used. Madeira wine may be added when baking the cake to make it more fragrant.

Madeira Island Cake is mistaken for Madeira Island. Madeira Island Cake is actually named after Madeira wine that comes with the plate. The residents of Madeira Island also invented a cake very similar to Madeira Island cake.
