Fruit "cake" or fruit "confection"? Many of today's fruitcakes are judged to be too much
fruit, too little cake. Take, for instance, the Harry
& David's fruitcake offering - deliciously packed with nuts and candied fruits - which received a B from Health.com's taste test. Points off for the
lack of cake maybe?
The company reviewed fruitcakes from five major internet sellers, rating Gethsemani Farms $27.50 Kentucky Bourbon cake as the best with a grade of A, and the little old lady in Oregon as last with a D , she of Gloria's Classic Fruitcakes. They're "dry, dense, and bitter," and sold out for the year, so you can't try them, anyway. Also rated: Holy Cross Abbey Monastery Fruitcakes and Georgia Fruitcake Company.
