I have never really liked fruit cake since childhood ones, yuk, but this was really wonderful! This year I made a trifle, but next year I hope to make the fruitcake ahead of time.Alpha Baker Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11362064527893799872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7452207798550129491.post-36637305260900843392011-01-11T08:04:32.048-07:002011-01-11T08:04:32.048-07:00These look almost like fruit-filled scones, and I ...These look almost like fruit-filled scones, and I like that concept.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7452207798550129491.post-76583748031826576542011-01-10T22:23:06.088-07:002011-01-10T22:23:06.088-07:00I really love dried fruits in cakes/baked goods; s...I really love dried fruits in cakes/baked goods; so this would be perfect for me!
