I’ve never been a fan of Christmas cake. The only justification for it is the glass of sherry or ginger wine that, with any luck, you’re offered along with it to help flush it down. Why not make an ultra rich chocolate cake instead?
Hi Julia. Gail and Ray here. I've tried to attach a photo of the fruit cake Gail makes every year. Instead of rum, this year she used Elk Store Pecan Pie Moonshine imported from Texas. She wraps it in the same piece of cheesecloth that for years now has a permanent impression of the cake. We started calling it "the shroud of Turin" many years ago. We serve this cake with mimosas on Christmas morning as a tradition. It remains a favorite. /Users/raymondkearns/Desktop/Gails Fruitcake.jpg
Hope all is well. Hello to Martin. Merry Christmas
How great to hear from you! Sad to say, the link to what sounds like a Historic photo isn't live but your description is more than lively. Sounds like a great tradition you have going. Amazed yo hear moonshine can be imported...or maybe it's passed from furtive hand to furtive hand all the way north. Have a great and happy feasting! xxj
