This is a really good cake. So easy to make too. This is soooo much better than back in the days of the dried out fruit cakes noone wanted at Christmas time! I did add several glace cherry halves in addition to the dried fruit and adjusted the cooking time a bit. I baked mine in a regular bread pan for one hr and it came out just right. Very moist and very tasty. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe Angela. I will def make it again.
