The is a delicious white fruitcake recipe. The cakes are very tender and moist. The sauce is tasty, but save it for your grandmother's fruitcake, this one doesn't need it. I have finally found a keeper.

This is the recipe to try if you are one of those people who thinks fruitcake is only good for regifting. This cake is delicious. Try it and you'll become a fruitcake lover too!

I made this recipe because my husband loves fruit cake. We tested two of the cakes at one week, two at two weeks and then the balance at 3 weeks. It was a hard wait but well worth the wait! Best tasting if you can wait the three weeks. Not your average store bought fruit cakes that is for sure! I bought more ingredients to make it again! Can't get enough!

Very easy to prepare
Great taste and welcomed departure from old memories of Grandma's fruit cake!

Sorry Emeril, I really tried. I even used fruit and nuts that I liked (macadamias, pecans, almonds, dried cherries, blueberries, and apricots and I soaked it in the alcohol just like you said....it was moist, full of flavor, but even with all the fancy ingredients it still tasted like a fruitcake to me and no one in my house ate more than half a slice. Won't make this or any other fruitcake again.

This was so much better than usual fruitcakes. The sauce was fantastic and so easy to make.

I used apricots instead of cranberries because I just don't care for cranberries. The recipe was easy to make and really delicious.

I have never liked fruitcake. This is nothing like the packaged fruitcakes you get every christmas. This recipe turned out so well, I started out making them as gifts, and I had to keep one for myself.

I made these fruit cakes last Christmas and they were a HUGE success. This year I'm making them both in the mini version and in a bundt cake. There's never any left overs here.
