Funnygirl you are too funny to ask this. ;-) I made my Christmas fruit cakes since the beginning of September, all heavily saturated with bourbon. By the end of October all was gone. Greedy me ate them all up. They were so good.
Had to make one for work, but won't bother at home....daughter won't touch it. So that leaves me ...well if I put marzipan onI won't be able to eat it as nuts make my mouth itch (tho I love marzipan!)....saves me from eating the whole cake-lol
