Your wish is granted; you're on the Intarwebs.

Not too odd actually - home-made fruitcake can be quite delicious. Good luck in finding all the ingredients tonight.

REAL English fruitcake, or the travesty that passes for it in the USA that looks and feels like a brick?

So, tell me about English fruitcake?

My wife says you are full of win.

English fruitcake

Dark, moist, bursting with flavour, wrapped in muslin, which has soaked in brandy, for at least a month to mature, and then covered in marzipan and royal icing.

Sounds good, except for the royal icing, which I tend to think of as oversweetened clay.

I also want this thing. So, it turns out, does wispfox.

Mmm. May be time to whip up some fruit-cake-substitute.

Didn't galaneia feed us chocolate fruitcake once? I have a recipe stashed here.
