Collin Street Bakery DeLuxe Fruitcake - Handcrafted Fresh with Pecans, Pineapple, Papaya, Ripe Cherries, Raisins, & Honey - Giftable Collector's Tin - Baked in Texas Since 1896-8" - 102A (2 lbs 14 oz)

Collin Street Bakery fruitcake is a taste of my childhood. My point in sharing this with you, is from my first bite in the 1960’s, until this one, the quality, and taste are the same.This is the fruit cake for folks that aren’t crazy about fruit cake.Fresh, fruity, and delicious.Not the brick ‘o fruit cake we’re used to.Sorry Claxton.These babies are pricey compared to the grocery store versions, but the dollar value for dollar spent is excellent.

This fruitcake is so yummy. I think it might be the honey that tops it off and brings all the flavors together. I read reviews stating that their cakes were dry and stale. Fortunately, I have never experienced these issues in the 3 cakes that I purchased in December of '23. If I were to get a cake not to my satisfaction, I would use the satisfaction guarantee that Collin St. Bakery offers. Inside the cake can there is a small pamphlet thanking the customer for their purchase AND informing them that if they are not completely satisfied, they can contact Amazon for a full refund or replacement. I just ordered my 4th cake and pray it is as good as the other 3, if not, I will contact Amazon for the full guarantee the seller offers their customers.

Excellent fruit cake.

Since this fruitcake was a gift for my daughter. I only tasted a tiny bit, but it was wonderful. She had to freeze the rest of it so she could have a little bit any time she wanted.

My mother received one of Collen Street Bakery's fruitcakes for a christmas gift. What a surprise from the usual fruitcakes of old. This one was flavorful, moist and delicious. I liked it so much and it was gone quickly I thought I would surprise my mother with another fruitcake. I ordered the identical cake and was very pleased when it arrived quickly. However, that is when the pleasure ended. The fruitcake I received was very dry, the nuts tasted awful and it seemed as if the cake was just plain stale. What a disappointment and it reminded me of fruitcakes of old. As you can see we all gave it a try just in case one of us was wrong but we all agreed. Very dry and almost stale. I think it will be awhile before we see an empty tin from this fruitcake.

I used to HATE fruitcake . I thought it was horrible. I've had several brands and my Mom and Grandmother used to bake them . No amount of brandy could make me want slice.Until I ordered one of these.The reason why I'm back on Amazon is to order another one. If 50 bucks seems pricey, let me tell you it's worth every dime.Where do I begin? The wonderful presentation? The box and can the cake is shipped in are fancy and let me know I was in for a treat. The top of the cake had pecans EVERYWHERE. This cake is dense and filled with QUALITY ingredients. Sweet, but not too sweet.It's almost like the fruit pieces were perfectly placed in each bite.We soaked ours with brandy and it was wonderful. If you give one of these as a gift you will be loved and treasured for the rest of your days. I mean it. I'm gonna stop writing and see If we have any left. Enjoy !

Moist and tasty!

My husband had never had fruitcake and I ordered this for his birthday because I had them all of my childhood from this bakery. It still tastes the same and he really enjoyed it.
