Fruitcake image

This recipe I got from my dear Aunt who has been gone for over 30 years now. People who don't like Fruitcake love this one. This is the best one I have ever eaten, my daughter Christine can eat a 2 pound cake by herself. This cake is very rich.

I've never been a fan of fruitcake, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so moist and flavorful, and the candied fruit is the perfect touch. I will definitely be making this again.

This fruitcake was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I might try making it again with a different recipe.
