Heat the oven to 300ºF. Prepare a spring form pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment, and then spray the parchment.
Coarsely chop the walnuts.
In a bowl, mix the walnuts with the raisins, currants, figs, flour, orange and lemon zest, and spices.
In a small saucepan on medium heat, heat the sugar, honey, and butter stirring constantly, until it reaches between 242ºF and 248ºF on a candy thermometer (soft ball stage).

Bake about 30 to 40 minutes, until set.
Once cool, remove from the pan, peel off parchment and cut into 16 pieces.
