Just ordered one from Collins Street Bakery, my first from them. Looking forward to see how their fruitcakes are.

Based on the picture alone, I vote yay. Get some rum in your eggnog and it won't matter.
Good fruit cake is delicious. Bad fruit cake is horrendous. Not much middle ground.

I much prefer the ones that I make.

Being honest saying that. Yeah, 1 a year is plenty here as well. Didn't get one last Christmas so I thought I'd 'splurge'. Merry Christmas to you and yours as well.

Did they ask for cake or for this abominable loaf? So not only does this thing exist, people are deprived of cake!

I had a sample of fruitcake from that place once while traveling through Texas. I was a passenger in a Tesla and they have a supercharging station.
I was good I suppose but a little sweet for my taste. I have only my wife's Weihnachtsstollen to compare against though.

I like them frozen. They roll better.

x2 I've never tasted a baked fruitcake that I really liked. Some were ok, but that's about all I could say for them. However, unbaked fruitcake is another story. A big ol chunk of it and a cold glass of milk..... UUUMMMMMM!
