Review of Old Cavendish Fruitcake

I did not purchase this size fruitcake, but bought a rather larger one (40 oz) from old cavendish that came in a tin. My mom used to make fruitcake; I always thought that I should like it--I love most of the ingredients--but I couldn't get past that nasty candied fruit. The description of this fruitcake, which features unsulfured natural dried fruits and LOTS of nuts, intrigued me. I bought one--and we began 'fighting' over the fruitcake. It was amazingly good, the best either of us had ever tasted (and he loves fruitcake). In an effort for each of us to be thoughtful, we each 'saved' the last piece for the other. As a result, the last piece stayed in the back of the fridge for more than a year--when either of us cleaned out the fridge, we put it back in for the other to consume. Finally, realizing that a year and a half had gone by, we resolved that the next one to take it out would dispose of it; I suggested checking it first as fruitcakes are famous for their 'keeping' qualities. He did so--AND IT WAS STILL GOOD! He said it was still very tasty and moist. The company makes these in small batches; it seems that the prior reviewer may have gotten one made on an 'off' day (we all have one now and again, don't we?) Please don't let this stop you from trying the best fruitcake ever!
