mailin 0 #3 December 1, 2006 you too? Hi, my name is Jen and I like fruitcake. *sits down* Hi Jen! Arianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #4 December 1, 2006 Apparently there are many who wish to remain anonymous. Your poll is in favor of the cake that dare not speak its name right now. A few years ago I bought my dad one from this place. They make a pretty good cake, though it's more cake-like than I prefer. I want dense, gooey fruit. I'm still on their mailing list so this time of year I'll get the catalogs and it's fun to check them out."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

mailin 0 #5 December 1, 2006 Have you tried Harry & David's fruit cake... *wipes away drool*. I don't care what the description says, I swear it weighs about 10 lbs. and could break a coffee table. Its delicious! Arianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking of the one at the Premium Outlets up north, but now you have me wondering if there actually is one up there... I checked, and there is.

I guess it depends on how it's made. I usually like Stollen (a German fruitcake). Mmm, I wish there was a German bakery out here...
