Geez Gill, you are making me salivate. Stop please! Short of that, you can make one for me - I'm no chef.

From the "sound" of it that's one hell of a cake. I want a piece.
Can't make it though, 'cause if all goes well I'll be in Oregon for Christmas.
Lots of Christmas trees there.

You better stop teasing us now! (you better hide that cake .)

Gill,
I've made them a couple of times - it is amazing how delicious a 3-month old cake can be! Yes, the period soaking with rum or brandy is important.
As you may know, many people in the US do not appreciate fruit cake - there are jokes every year about gifts of fruit cakes being recycled (re-gifted) year after year, no one actually eating it. Personally, I consider a good fruit cake a major treat!
Happy Christmas!

Andy, you fruit cake, you! Are you well-soaked in brandy?

Sounds like a brandy cake.
Does it sneak up on you.?
Does it taste like biting into a drink.?
