PRODUCT DETAILS
Description
Our indulgent, fruit-rich recipe is handmade in Shropshire and baked with sultanas, apple, apricots, figs, dates, walnuts and treacle. This fruit cake would make a delicious gift to a friend in a hamper as well as treat for yourself at afternoon tea. Enjoy on its own or, following the fine tradition of Lancashire and Yorkshire, it is even better enjoyed with a mature Cheddar or Stilton and a glass of Port. Fruitcakes began to emerge in the late 17th century among the wealthy, enriched with sweetness and dried fruit, and they remain one of Britain’s favourite cakes today.

A very nice fruit cake, with cheese or with a little butter. I enjoyed mine very much, and I gifted the second one. I have had no feedback about the gift.

This looks delicious - and it should be - it is rather expensive!

This cake was amazing! So full of fruit, a lovely rich texture and so tasty. It wasn't cheap to buy but well worth the money as was full of great quality ingredients. I definitely recommend and would buy again. No photo I am afraid as it has all gone after a visit from friends!
