That's the most beautiful fruitcake I've ever seen! Great job!

Life is a rush into the unknown. You can duck down and hope nothing hits you, or you can stand tall, show it your teeth and say "Dish it up, Baby, and don't skimp on the jalapeños."

This is also my first time checking out the completed challenge -- great work! The gingerbread fruitcake is definitely on my list of things to try.

Thanks Patrick. I'm sure it would have looked even more appetizing had you photographed it! The gingerbread fruitcake recipe is good even without the fruit and nuts. I think the original recipe calls for some coffee soaked raisins (and no other chunky stuff)...about a half a cup of raisins if I recall.
