Collin Street Bakery DeLuxe® Fruitcake in Collectible Gift Tin - 101 Regular Size 7” Cake with Pecans, Cherries, Pineapple, Papaya, Raisins, & Honey (1 lb 14 oz)

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! 😎

Best fruitcake EVER , and I've never liked fruitcake! The Texas pecans were scrumptious, it's very healthy, but luscious, if you love carrot cake this is many times BETTER than your favorite carrot cake, without needing cream cheese frosting (that might great on this fruitcake...). The cherries from Washington State, very delicious in this. This wonderful historical fruitcake is a must try it at least once in your life, I'm so glad I did, it kept for days w/o a refrigerator, was still moist, (I was travelling) had to part w/the last little bit. If you like nut bread, you'll enjoy this, it has wonderful golden raisins in it, it will give you and yours a completely new knowledge of what fruitcake really is and always should be! Who knew!!! You can eat a slice of this 3x each day for 5 days (skip bread) have a mug of milk w/it, your favorite tea, or coffee or juice, it is splendid what a treat, is just marvelous, and truly delightful! Then you have this lovely little historic, collectible, useful nostalgic tin that it arrived in...I have enjoyed repurposing mine. This wonderful part of AMERICAN MADE /TEXAS TRADITION is worth EVERY penny spent on it, the enjoyment was multiplied. Think on Jesus and all He taught about the Fruits of the Holy Spirit of God, get one of these to share w/those you are led to share God's blessings with, because this is ONE of God's MANY BLESSINGS, or for yourself because God sends His blessings upon all, He sent Jesus Most of all, to get one of these cakes to CELEBRATE Jesus Birth and Resurrection, and thank Him, He looks forward to sharing with us ALWAYS!!!

Always love their fruitcake. Very tasty.

If you like fruitcake, then this is the ones to buy. I gave it to my sister for Christmas. She said fresh and delicious too. For those that are confused by the name fruitCAKE, there is very little cake. Only enough to bind it together. Momma used to make it every Christmas. Special memories!!!

Well packaged. Arrived in very timely manner. Tastes great. Expensive, but so is everything. Plenty of fruit. Moist.

Well, I was really excited to try this fruit cake. I heard about Collin Street Bakery on a pod cast and the information given that the fruit cake recipe came from German immigrants in the 1890's sounded very interesting. So I thought I would give it a try. The cake comes in a decorated tin and looks appetizing. The amount of pecans on top made it difficult to wait until I had time to sit down and enjoy it. First I have to say I picked off a couple of the pecans on top, popped them in my mouth and was surprised there was no taste to them. I love pecans and thought coming from Texas these pecans should be very flavorful indeed. The cake is packed with fruit and nuts and I became even more disappointed. I wanted to taste the pineapple, honey, and all the ingredients. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. No flavor at all. So I thought, how long has this cake been setting on the shelf? I looked for an expiration date but none was found. Hm. Well, it is fruitcake. Possibly the shelf life is 25 years? I don't know.

It’s pricey but worth every penny. But don’t tell your fruitcake hating friends and family or else they’ll expect you to share! My husband and I get one of these every year. And we enjoy every bite! Downside is that we can no longer be satisfied with the cheap grocery store fruitcakes.

Cómo siempre, es un producto de alta calidad y sabor.

j'avais eu l'occasion de manger ce gâteau qui est excellent, mais qui reste un rêve rare en raison de son prix et des frais d'envoi. mais pour une personne gourmande (comme moi), c'est à renouveler de temps à autres. N'a pas son équivalent en France dans sa catégorie. Hum!!

Super Christmas cake. It's a joy to eat. Full of nuts and fruit. Not the normal dark heavy cake.. It's a treat we look forward to each year. It is an expensive cake but it's only once let year.

Una estafa, muy pequeño, corriente, mal sabor, viejo.No lo recomiendo. Nada que ver con un buen fruit cake.

You just can't better this cake. Next year I shall order earlier and get it for Christmas. No-one could fault this cake, it is absolutely delicious. It also doesn't last long. It is moist and really yummy. One little niggle though. On Amazon site it said could be delivered by Christmas even though it comes from the States. It takes the usual 3-4 weeks to arrive from US - still it is worth waiting for. Just make sure that you order early if you want it for Christmas.
