The Best British FruitcakeNov 23, 2010
By Julia A. Andrews
All those jokes about the same fruitcake being re-gifted every year. Yes, I told them too.
My Brit husband loves this one by Walkers. Believe me when I say it was the best fruitcake I have ever tasted. It is a rich, moist dense cake packed with raisens. None of those icky plastic apple, cherry or pineapple pieces that dominate an American one.
Rather on the expensive side esp when you add in shipping/handling but once a year makes it a true holiday treat.
Enjoy the Holidays!

There is NOTHING like European Fruitcake!!Dec 02, 2010
By Rachel S. Lacow
"boisenewbie"
I LOVE fruitcake. I just love it ... but when I try to share that with other people, they just don't understand. Fruitcake has gotten such a bad reputation. The thing is, people from the US believe that fruitcake has to contain those disgusting day-glow pieces of cherry and other "fruit" It seems even the gourmet cakes purchased at places like Williams Sonoma or the cakes lovingly hand made by monks have this atrocity! I find that to be beyond gross! I won't touch any of those cakes.
It is the European fruitcakes that I long for. Not too sweet and full of raisins and nuts and other goodies (Not to mention the alcohol which keeps everything nice and moist). Absolutely nothing about it glows in the dark.
This cake made by Walkers is one of the best I have ever had. The marzipan on the top really gives it something special. It is just delicious! I would give it 5 stars, but it is a bit pricey. I agree with the other reviewer though. For a once a year treat it is well worth it.
Good fruitcakeJan 19, 2012
By Dani
Good fruitcake. Lots of dried fruit. None of that horrible colored candy type fruity stuff. Frosting is thick but so is the cake, so it's balanced. Probably could have used more nuts. I'll order again, but probably not for a while because it is rather expensive.
