Fruitcake rocks. Bake away. I'll take one. :)

Making a fruitcake is fine, just don't EAT one.

I'm with jbsegal. I'd eat one (but not in a single sitting).

Can I have some?

I suspect Thai customs might regard it as a munition, a biological agent, or a suspicious substance. (Fruitcake is, in fact, all three.) In any of those cases, they'd probably cart it off for destruction before it got to you...

Mmmmm! Send me one! I promise to keep it properly drunk ;>

I love fruitcake batter. Yummy.

The fruitcake batter was in fact yummy. I'm still getting the baked fruitcake suitably drunk, so I haven't sampled the end product yet.

What's not to love? Butter, sugar, fruit...

I like the british version with a thin layer of apricot jam followed by a layer of rolled marzipan and a layer of rolled fondant. Yummy. The drunker the cake, the better. *grin*

Hm, the British version sounds interesting, but I want to experiment with the standard American variation for a while first. Mmmm, marzipan...

[kylakae.livejournal.com]

Oh I quite agree. Mmmmarzipan! I can eat it all by itself!
