All these fruitcake recipies are a myth. The truth is that there were only about 1000 fruitcakes ever made. And these 1000 have been circulated several times around the globe. They are received as gifts and immediately resent as gifts and immediately resent as gifts and immediately re............. ad infinitum. On the rare occasion, one is stolen at the post office ( hard to believe "stolen " at the PO) and actually consumed so there are probably about 946 still in circulation.
Time to put a STOP to THAT. If you get one of those few remaining in circulation, remove from packaging, wrap with many layers of cheesecloth, place into a Tupperware container, soak liberally with a fine bourbon or cognac, close container and refrigerate for........... AND THEN, repackage in suitable container and send to me. Address will be provided posthaste.
