I think it’s really funny how some things get such a bad rap. Take fruit cake, for example. I mean, this confection is the quintessential bastard child of the holiday season. Jokes abound about using it for a door stop, for crying out loud. If you get one in gift hampers, you groan. Granted, I have had some really horrible fruit cakes. You know, those dry, crumbly things with no flavor that get stuck in your craw? However, that’s not a real fruit cake. The real deal is amazing, super moist and doused in rum. It can be hard to get a great fruit cake, but when you do, enjoy it, because they are fantastic.
