Turn pot right side up and press down into pots, pressing firmly against all sides. Let extra foil hang over rim of pots to aid in removal later. Generously grease inside of foil and dust with flour; set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add apple juice and egg; Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium for 3 minutes. Combine raisins and flour; fold into batter. Fill each prepared pot three-fourths full. Sprinkle with almonds. Place pots on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 325F for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Place pots on a wire rack to cool. When cooled, remove foil liners from pots. Carefully peel off foil and discard. Heat a small amount of corn syrup and brush over tops of loves. Decorate with candied cherries. Wrap loaves in plastic wrap or with a napkin and put back into pots for gift-giving. Yield: 3 loaves.
