Best fruit cake on the market

The best

Ohhh myyy goshhh, this is such a holiday surprise (to me...er, for me) Let me come clean in the opening statement that I have been on a Keto Diet for the last 2 months and I expect to continue the Keto Lifestyle for the rest of my life............................except for this week. Because this fruit cake is "THE BEST FRUIT CAKE IN THE WORLD"! Holy smokes, the cardboard box had a wonderful image of the Corsicana bakery in Texas and the artistic masterpiece of a tin is such a treat that I will never throw it away....how could you as it's truly a beautiful piece of Americana. The fruit cake is amoungst a set of cakes that vary from pineapple & pecans to a mega-pecan monster. Pecan pies are also their speciality. I knew none of this before. The cake had pecans and candied cherries on top and a perfect mix of medium brown colored cake with holiday sugar sweetness bombs. Have it with tea, have it with coffee, have it with champagne...but JUST HAVE IT. Do not fret, do not check who's naughty or nice, do not wait a minute more...it ships on Amazon THANK GOD! IT'S A MIRACLE!! Buy it yesterday! Oh, and I will have to freeze half so that I may return to the Keto Lifestyle. But today....I need a 2nd piece...and I need it RIGHT NOW!UPDATE: ...couldn't wait. EATING my 2nd slice right now. Is your mouth watering yet?UPDATE #2: Waited a week, then ventured into my freezer where I had buried a golden treasure that would have forced Queen Isabella to built more ships to bring this Texas delight back to the mother country. And I had the foresight to have presliced the cake before sealing in a large vacuum bag. I am reminded of a flight back-in-the-day when there were "direct plane flights"....terms get bantied about and get smushed into mush...those are the flights which stop midway somewhere but you didn't get off the jet if you were continuing on. Only 4 of us were waiting...but the flight attendants were huddled about a 1st class passenger and giggling. I walked up and discovered thst he was "the voice of Tony The Tiger"! Mr. Ravenscroft told us he was going to Orlando to be honored by Kellogg's for X years of support for "Frosted Flakes"...as he had touched generations and repeat generations with his voice. Well, he also was the voice for the Christmas song "Mr. Grinch". Think about it...yeah, that voice from the song you are singing is the same voice as Tony The Tiger. Well, don't you be a Mr. Grinch this Christmas, and wish all of your friends a very Merry Christmas...or bettet yet surprise them. Wouldn't this be a super duper incredible surprise...you'd be the gathering's "star".There's 4 photos but you have to click to see the 4th..and BEST ONE! Isn't your mouth salivating like Pavlov's dog whenever you look at the 4th photo...that slice with coffee is sheer bliss. So, don't be a Mr. Grinch ...buy it. Buy it right now! You will thank me! 😎

I was so looking forward to this fruit cake and then I had a piece and I had an anaphylactic reaction! That’s the most serious reaction you can have to a food or drug and it’s one I’ve only had with medication’s. It was so bad I thought we would have to go to the hospital. I have no idea what was in this fruitcake that would cause me to react this way. I also had severe stomach and intestinal cramping. Because Collin’s bakery has a guaranteed return policy no matter what reason, my husband called Amazon and we were able to get a full refund. I’m very thankful to this bakery that we could at least get our money back! This reaction to the fruitcake scared me so much and I hope I never have to go through this again. By the way, I really didn’t like the taste of this fruit cake, I’m sad to say that because I know they put a lot of love into what they do.

I loved this fruit cake and I don’t really care for fruit cake! It is moist beyond description, full of nuts and fruit!! I bought this as a gift for my boss but he shared a couple of pieces with me and I am considering buying one to have at home. It was smaller than I expected for the price but once I tasted it I was beyond pleased with the gift. Will definitely buy one again next year if not sooner for myself!

Adequate. A few huge chunks of glaceed fruit on top, which made it less attractive and we picked those off. Gethsemene Farm’s is better.

Very good. Fresh with lots of delicious fruits.

Great taste but too a month to receive
