This recipe was given to me in 1975 by a co-workers wife. I have been making it a very long time, each Christmas. As far as I know this was a Christmas Fruitcake recipe originally .

[email protected]This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just because I used too many gumdrops. Next time I'll use half the amount.
