This is designed for people who don't like fruitcake. It is not as sweet or as dry. My husband hated fruitcake until he had mine.

Rich Dark Fruitcake

Submitted by: Carol 
This is my mother's very old recipe, at least 60 years old. My mother baked this for my wedding, and it sure is delicious and also a great Christmas cake. This is a very long recipe, but well worth the trouble. If 2 cups of butter seems too much for you, substitute shortening for 1 cup of the butter. Other fruit juices can be substituted for grape juice. You can also use 1 cup of drained maraschino cherries in place of the candied cherries. Originally submitted to CakeRecipe.com.

Mom's Fruitcake

Submitted by: Sharon 
This is the fruitcake my mother made from the time I was a little girl. It isn't full of the citrus fruits, and I've never met anyone who didn't like it. Originally submitted to CakeRecipe.com. You can use fruit juice instead of the brandy, if you prefer. 

Brazil Nut Fruitcake

Submitted by: Juanita 
This cake is more of a confection than a cake. It makes a beautiful, festive presentation. This recipe came to our family from a dear lady, Mrs. Barrows, in Corpus Christi in 1948. She shared this family recipe with my mother. Remember to leave all the fruits and nuts whole. Slice the cake thin. The slices are beautiful because you slice into the whole fruit and nuts.

There's just enough cake to hold the nuts and fruit together, and no nasty citron. This is one terrific cake. Originally submitted to CakeRecipe.com.
