I have not made this particular fruit cake BUT the recipe is almost identical to one my mother has had for many many years that first appeared in a Blue Diamond Walnut advertisement. I think the only difference is that we do not use the peel, just all candied fruit. I have had co-workers that normally would turn and run from fruit cake (you know, the yucky store bought ones) come back for seconds and thirds samples. I usually make mine the Friday after Thanksgiving. One word of worning, it is becoming harder and harder to find the brandy flavoring (McCormick's quit making it several years ago)
